How many times have you dropped the children off at children’s activities so you can enjoy an
event? How many times have they sat “mostly” patiently through court? How many odd foods
have they eaten at SCA feasts? Well. this event has none of that! This event is all about children enjoying the game with their parents along for the ride. Everything about this event has
been tailored to provide maximum fun for the children and youth of Meridies!
Tournaments:
Heavy -
In each round 2 child parent teams will compete. Each parent will don an Angry Bird hat and safety goggles, they will then be given a chair to sit in and a small shield. The child from the opposing team will try to knock the bird off with their pool noodle sword before the other child does. The winner will advance in the tourney just like a normal tourney. The child of the winning team will win the first ever "Children's Cloak of Doom." Taller/older children may be required to fight from their knees to make things fair. Once again, no fighter authorization is required to play.
Light - Coming Soon
Archery Shoot - will feature Barney eggs and fizzy purple blood, we feel you can’t go wrong with fizzy purple
blood.
