Many forget the term "sportsmanship" in a competitive environment. Its even easier to do when its against another person directly, forget sportsmanship that is. This Pennsic saw a lot of one sided battles and it was not something all enjoyed. I just try to enjoy the moment and try to make it so my opponents do the same. </span></div><div><span></span> </div><div><span>I intended to try the Archery Champions team for Pennsic this year but I was already in The Rose Tournament and the Baronial Rapier Champions "Tournament".
