[Namron] Fighter marshal, Adult boffer marshal, youth combat marshal,

[Vanessa]

Greetings,
As you have noticed, it has fallen through the cracks.  I used to be the Local, then Regional, and then DEM Youth Combat.  There currently is no Northern marshal, or Central or Southern.  There is only Sir Simonn as Coastal.  Have you tried emailing the DEM?

If you need further assistance, please let me know.
thanks,
vanessa
