==Officers==
===Fencing Marshal-in-Charge===
#Every fencing combat event or practice must have a designated Marshal-in-Charge.

#When you run a fencing combat event, you must send a report to the Group Fencing Marshal within 30 days of the event.
 
===Group Fencing Marshal===
#The Kingdom Fencing Marshal appoints a Group Fencing Marshal, in consultation with the group Seneschal, to administer fencing combat within each group.
#The Group Fencing Marshal is an administrative position. A person <b>does not have to hold a fencing marshal authorisation</b> to be the Group Fencing Marshal.
#The Group Fencing Marshal is not required to provide training.
#The Group Fencing Marshal is responsible for making sure the rules are followed for all events and practice. That can include:
#*appointing a Marshal-in-Charge
#*receiving reports on events
#*investigating any incidents, including matters brought to their attention by marshals or fencers
#*reporting each quarter to the Kingdom Fencing Marshal on fencing combat activities and any incidents.
#*escalating issues when needed to the Kingdom Fencing Marshal.
#Group Fencing Marshals are appointed for two years. If necessary, the group Seneschal can request the Kingdom Fencing Marshal extend your warrant, for example if no-one else is available.
 
===Kingdom Fencing Marshal===
#The Kingdom Earl Marshal, in consultation with the Crown, appoints a Deputy to serve as the Kingdom Fencing Marshal.
#The Kingdom Fencing Marshal must hold and maintain a current fencing marshal authorisation and SCA membership.
#The Kingdom Fencing Marshal is responsible for making sure fencing combat in the Kingdom is carried out according to these rules. This can include:

#*reviewing the reports from Group Fencing Marshals
#*investigating any incidents, including matters brought to their attention by marshals and fencers
#*taking disciplinary action where required
#*reporting to the Kingdom Earl Marshal and the Society Fencing Marshal on fencing combat activities and any incidents
#*administering and promoting these rules including, where necessary, updating the rules in consultation with the fencing community, the Kingdom and the SCA in Australia and New Zealand.
#You can also use your discretion to authorise a Fencing Marshal <span class="revision"> or Authorising Fencing Marshal without undertaking the normal processes,</span> should you believe it is required to benefit the Kingdom and the Society. This might include appointing experienced <span class="revision">fighters as marshals</span> in order to promote that type of fencing within a group. <span class="revision">This should only be done when the normal process cannot be appiled, and does not overrule any other requirements. For example, Authorising Fencing Marshals must still be authorised in a form of combat to authorise fencers in that form.</span> You must make those appointments in writing, send a copy to the Kingdom Lists Officer as a record, and include the details of the appointment in your quarterly report.
#The Kingdom Fencing Marshal is appointed for two years. If necessary, the Kingdom Earl Marshal can recommend that your warrant be extended.
