ABOUT

"They came out of the mist on an icy wind, and froze the blood of weaker men."

Our South African fighters - you've seen them at Medieval Fayre

are heading abroad again in 2020! This time, they take on the shores of Spain at the International Medieval Combat Federation Championship 2020 at Castillo de Belmonte, April 30 - May 3 2020

To cover their travel and board, 100% of funds raised at this event will go towards getting them overseas to take on the best fighters the world has to offer.
