Berold's update 5/28

Greet the day Unbelted Fight Fans!

The Unbelted Tournament series is now HALF OVER!!!

On Sunday , the 1st of June in the Barony of the Citadel of the Southern Pass, the seventh of the Unbelted Tournaments will be fought. The style of the tournament of the day is 6' FOOT SPEAR, NO BUTT SPIKE . You must be authorized in this weapon style to participate. As is now the usual practice, he who Wins the list will receive a weapon of some type. He who Places will receive silver and lo, he who Shows will receive… something. Don’t forget that THL Anastasiia or her representative will be on hand to give victors of the list the opportunity to get a better (or worse) prize! Points will be given for Winning, Placing and Showing and do not forget that Most Chivalrous and Best Death on the Field will also receive points. The tournament will be fought best of three, double elimination.

Please remember that to gain entrance into these Lists, a toy is to go to THL Anastasiia (or her representative) for the Toys for Tots drive or you may present to her (or her representative) at the time of the List the sum of $5.00 for her to purchase toys on your behalf. One toy or the price of one toy ($5.00 minimum) is all you need to enter although if you deem it necessary to donate more, the children will appreciate it, I am sure!

(Alas, Sir Gunndiarfr, having attained the accolade the day he won points in this tournament series, has been, regrettably, disqualified as he is now a knight of the Realm and no longer eligible to participate - Hurrah and Bully for you Sir Knight on your elevation to the Peerage!!!)

Lord Eirik Mhartain Nahrun Kabirun 1 pt.

Please know that there are many unbelted fighters who have not partaken of this series of tournaments. No worries as there is no time like the present to jump into the series. Fight when you can and do your best!



The site is on the southern or Grant Street side of Memorial Park in the Citadel. To get there, take your best route to I - 10. Exit on Piedras Street from either direction. If coming from the East, turn north or right onto Piedras. If coming from the West, turn north or left onto Piedras. Continue on Piedras past a set of railroad tracks and make the first right, heading east, onto Grant Street. Continue on Grant until you come to the circular parking area in the park on the left.

The weather, if such things are to be trusted by non-weather gods, will be sunny in the upper 90's.



Be well and fight hard –

Sir Berold
