#Youth fighters must authorise to fight in tournaments at SCA events. After their initial authorisation, they must re-authorise at each division change.
#To authorise, youth combatants must be observed fighting, to verify that that they understand and follow the rules and are safe on the field. They must be seen to:
##Identify the legal and illegal target areas on the body.
##Demonstrate losing an arm or leg.
##Demonstrate dying defensively.
##Throw a calibration blow at another, more experienced fighter, and verify that the blow used appropriate force. If another youth fighter is not available, have the authorising fighter strike your marshal's staff.
##Spend several minutes sparring with an experienced youth fighter.
##Fight a formal bout against an experienced youth fighter, including dying defensively if they are killed.
#The authorising marshal should look for the following behaviors:
##Blows struck with appropriate calibration levels
##Acceptance of received blows of appropriate force
##Adherence to rules
##Confidence in the list; not running away from opponents or ducking in fear at incoming blows
#:Note: Youth fighters do not have to be skilled to be authorised, they just need to be safe.
#Youth fighters may authorise up a division before they reach the listed age, if parents and authorising marshal agree that they are ready, based on their skill and size.
