<p><b>New page</b></p><div>A [[tournament]] held periodically to give the rapier community a chance to test themselves against the Masters and Mistresses of [[Defense]]. Similar to the [[Tournament of Chivalry]], and perhaps held in conjunction with that event, there is no specific victor. <br />

<br />
== Commentary on the Name ==<br />
<br />
A question that has previously arisen is, "Why call this a tournament?" For many people, a tournament includes a contest in which there is a victor. However, the event conforms to another somewhat historical meaning of the word:<br />
<br />
: 3. b. a meeting at an appointed time and place for the performance of knightly exercises and sports. [http://www.dictionary.com/browse/tournament Dictionary.com]<br />
