Youth Armored Combat at Ursulmas 2025

Greetings – one and all!

We are pleased to invite the youth among you to join us for Youth Armored Combat! Available for youth aged 6 –17 years.

The mission of our SCA youth martial programs is to provide a safe and fun environment where the youth can participate in martial activities at a level appropriate to their age. The goal is to introduce and reinforce the ideals of chivalry, honor, courtesy, service, and heraldic pageantry, both on and off the list field. The program stresses good sportsmanship and parental participation. It is designed to allow the youth to learn more about all aspects of the Society and above all, HAVE FUN! Throughout the event there will be opportunities for youth to try on the basic armor and to practice in the list field with the practice swords so that they can get a feel of how Youth Armored Combat works. Youth must be accompanied at all times by an adult guardian with a properly signed medical waiver and be able to sign a single use combat waiver, forms available on this site soon, as well as at the event. There will also be a Youth Armored Tournament of the SCA youth that everyone is welcome to watch and cheer for the youth of our kingdom.
