Fencing notes:Rules For Managing Incidents

Accidentally hitting too hard - 1 January 2024

If you think you accidentally hit your opponent too hard, tell your opponent not to take it.

Injuries and reporting - 1 January 2024

Please note the new rules with regards to concussion, where the injured person must leave the field and cannot participate in combat or training until assessed medically, even if symptoms resolve. New rules in 13.3 and 13.4 have been added about managing injuries and other incidents, and reporting requirements. They mirror those for armoured combat.

Suspensions from combat due to causing an injury can only be appealed to the Kingdom Fencing Marshal or higher.
