The name for this group comes from the word 'Hastilude', a term meaning 'spear games'. We will ultimately learn all of the skills used in a Middle European jousting tournament. We are also going to explore the mounted use of swords, maces, and bows to further our knowledge and skills.

Basically, we are a group of horse enthusiasts interested in honing and developing the martial skills of combat and competition appropriate to the Current Middle Ages. (You need not be active SCA member...ALL are welcome!!)

We also need people interested in assisting the riders during training and competitions, similar to what a 'squire' would do... handing them the weapons on the field and resetting the gaming equipment. We generally hold our practices once or twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays, weather permitting. If this interests you, PLEASE come out and play... We need you!!
