And I appreciate the anticipation for both parents and youth to begin. However, please be aware that per kingdom law (see below), armored combat activity involving youth may not be conducted absent the presence of a warranted Armored Youth Combat Marshal.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So far as I am aware, while some have generously expressed interest in pursuing a youth marshal warrant, we do not have at this time any warranted Armored Youth Combat Marshals within the Barony. This will preclude any armored combat activity (including training) at Baronial practices until that changes. If someone has obtained an Armored Youth Combat Marshal warrant, they should contact me immediately with their paperwork before conducting any youth practices.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>3.1.3.1.4 Knight's Marshal (KM)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> 3.1.3.1.4.1 Any group that wishes to conduct any marshal related activity at an event must have a Warranted Marshal or sponsorship from a warranted Atlantian Marshal that will assume responsibility for the event. If the Marshal is unable to serve as Marshal in Charge for the event/activity (unable to attend the event, not warranted for the activity, or for some other reason) a warranted marshal must be recruited to serve as MiC. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> 3.1.3.1.4.3 The Knight's Marshal must ensure that practices are conducted in accordance with SCA corporate policy and the guidelines that are defined in this document and its appendices. The Knight's Marshal must ensure that the group has a representative marshal present at such practices for all of the disciplines being practiced. Any one marshal may represent any or all disciplines in which he or she is an authorized marshal.<br><br>-- Grimkirk<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
