Mission & Goals
The mission of Youth Martial programs is to provide a safe and fun environment where the youth of the SCA can participate in martial activities, mirroring adult Armored Combat 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.

HAVE FUN!
