Grand Assault of Arms

Fencer Registration

The Grand Assault of Arms has been the ultimate test of martial skill among classical fencers since 2003. This year the tournament will consist of assaults in four weapons: Foil, Dueling Sword, Sabre and Small-Sword. Each year while the rules remain the same, we adjust the tournament structure. This year is no different. There will be no qualifying rounds. The final assaults will be held during our public event on the Sunday the 24th.
