        There are three levels of Youth Armoured Combat Marshals: 
             Group Knight Marshal Deputy for Youth Combat 
                 This is an administrative role responsible for:
                   ?  promoting Youth Armoured Combat within their group
                   ? organising events and equipment relevant to their groups needs

NB: This role is filled by a groups Knight Marshal if a Deputy for Youth Combat position is not filled and/or required

             Youth Armoured Combat Marshal: 
                   ? These are marshals who have been warranted by the kingdom to marshal tournaments and melees for Youth Armoured Combat and are able to authorise combatants. 
             Youth Armoured Combat Sparring Partner: 
                   ? These are adults who have been warranted by the kingdom to spar with youth combatants. 
                   ? They must be able to demonstrate a sound working knowledge of weapons, armour, and calibration levels appropriate to all divisions.

     Marshal responsibilities
             Assist the MiCs as required
             Monitor activities and behavior on the field and immediately stop all potentially hazardous or unchivalrous activities.
             Marshals on the field are expected to take an active role in safety, sportsmanship and assistance in calibration. Youth Armoured Combat Marshals have a greater responsibility to intervene than their counterparts in adult martial activities. The younger the combatants, the more active the marshaling becomes.
             Marshals shall remove from the field any combatant who refuses to obey the commands of the marshals or other officials.
