Mission & Goals
Youth Armoured Combat provides a fun environment where the youth of the SCA can participate in a martial activity, mirroring adult Armoured Combat at a fun level for their age. The goal is to show and learn the ideals of chivalry, honor, courtesy, service, and heraldic pageantry, both on and off the list field.
The program stresses good sportsmanship and parental participation. It is designed to allow the youth to learn more about all aspects of the Society and above all - HAVE FUN!
