ANST - water bearers

[Mike Young]

I guess I live under a rock but I've been playing SCA 15 years and I didn't
realize that no one under 16 can be authorized to be a water bearer.  I
didn't even realize you had to be authorized.  Since water bearers can't go
on a field without a hold, why do we have these rules exactly?  I mean, I'm
sure there's a reason and I'm just missing it but my 10 year old wanted to
be a water bearer at Melees this weekend and I felt inadequate when she
asked me why she couldn't.  I told her we had to follow the rules but I
couldn't answer her when she asked me why it WAS a rule.
thanks,
gwyneth
