ANST - Involving young folk/Boffer tourneys

[Mararede at aol.com]

Two-three years ago I was acting MOC for Elfsea Defender. I set up a tourney
for the children, complete with milkjug helms, cardboard armour and cardboard
swords. Really tacky stuff, done on a shoestring, out of my own pocket.
___All___ the children participated, from the youngest to the oldest, 2-12,
roughly.
We had a blast! I saw honour and chivalry to rival any ever seen on the very
best 0tourney field. The kids loved it, fought over who got the left-over
armour. . . .       Nobody came to me and said it was against the rules; if
they had I would have demanded to see it in writing. Parents and other
volunteers seemed to have as good a time as the Children and I did. I also
used the children as marshals, waterbearers, list master/mistresses.
       Where is the document? I will sign it.
