The 2010 Tournament of the Phoenix will take the form of a pas d'armes, or 'passage of arms', in which three Brothers of the Order of the Crescent will hold the field against the five Venans. The competitors will accumulate points as they battle it out fighting on horseback in the club-tourney, on foot in the champ clos with pollaxes, as well as in the lists with the lance. With eight fully armoured 'knights' in attendance, the Tournament will be bigger than ever before.
This grueling 3 day, 6 event tournament of Jousting and Knightly Combat will test the combatants' skill and stamina. These men represent some of the very finest tournamenters of modern time, and we anticipate both a fierce contest of arms, and many fine displays of prowess.
The Tournament of the Phoenix is sanctioned by England's Royal Armouries Museum-Leeds and affiliated with the International Jousting League (http://users.skynet.be/hackamores/EJL/LEJ.htm)
