What is Medieval jousting?
Medieval jousting is the state sport of Maryland; knights began jousting in America in 1821.
Jousting began in 11th century France as a military exercise and soon spread throughout Europe. Despite Church opposition for its savagery and occassional state banishments jousting continued through the Middle Ages until the death of King Henry II of France from jousting injuries in 1599. Its revival, in a decidedly more humane form, occurred in Mount Solon, Virginia in 1821. Surely no sport in America has more romantic origins than jousting. A young Virginian maiden could not choose between the affections of two ardent suitors. Upon the advice of her uncle she decided to bestow her favor on the winner of a jousting contest. bodyOffer(25520) The site chosen for the joust was the Shenandoah Valleys spectacular Natural Chimneys for their resemblance to medieval castles. The two contestants were to ride at three rings suspended from arches 30 yards apart. The young knights practiced for weeks and on the day of the event a large crowd turned out to view the spectacle. Such a good time was had that it was decided to make the joust an annual event. From that day to this, on the third Saturday in August, the winning knight has earned the right to name and crown his Queen of Love and Beauty making the Mount Solon jousting tournament the oldest continually held sporting event in America.

JOUSTING
AT WARWICK CASTLE
A number of special events are organised at Warwick Castle throughout the year. This page shows some scenes of the Jousting at a Medieval Festival weekend, featuring action by The Devils Horsemen jousting team. The jousting tournament at Warwick Castle takes place on an island in the River Avon, which is joined to the Castle by a bridge. As the scheduled time for the performance approaches, visitors at the castle gather on the island, around the jousting field. The Knights approach on horseback, crossing the bridge over the Avon from the castle. The Knights are each led into the arena by Vinrac, a rebel maiden (Simone Griffiths). The Knights present themselves for the joust. The Knight in red colours is Sir Bors (Butch Andrews). The Knight in green colours is Igor (Roger Moore). The Knight in yellow colours is Prince Hal (Michael Nicholson). The Moor is Azim (Emanuel Lafon). Last to enter the arena is the outlawed Black Knight (Spencer Ratcliffe), who rides into the arena without submitting to the conventional formalities. The Black Knight rides Gidrat.

    Jousting
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Jousting is a competition between two knights on horse -back, wherein each knight tries to knock the other off his mount. Jousting was popular in medieval times, although it is still performed in Renaissance fairs . The knights are each equipped with three weapons; a lance , a one handed sword , and a rondel . When one knight knocks the other off of his mount, he is declared the winner of the round. If both knights are knocked off their mounts at the same time, it is considered a tie; they then engage in sword combat, and the last standing is victorious. The knights usually jousted in a best out of three situation. The reward of the tournament was the hand of his choice of lady. Modern-day jousting competitions feature riders on horseback attempting to thread a lance through a ring. The rings become smaller as the competition progresses; riders who fail to capture a ring are eliminated until a winner is determined. This version of the game is the official state sport of Maryland

    home Sport Jousting Jousting involved single mounted combat between two armoured knights , initially in preparation for war. For more details see The IJA Although its origins might have dated from antiquity, the medieval tournament did not actually appear in written records until around the middle of the 10th century AD. The first recorded reference of such an organized event is dated in the year 1066, and makes mention of a certain Godfrey de Preuilly, who is described as having invented the medieval tournament. In fact, according to contemporary chronicles, he is reported to have been accidentally killed while taking part in his own invention. ( From The IJA .. read on ).

    Jousting with Dragons: A Manifesto for Independence
    An Article by Mr. LTC
    "When first thrust into the role of a long-term care caregiver or patient, we begin to understand that our adversary is a formidable opponent. And as the true nature of this adversary is revealed, you begin to realize what's at stake - Everything. What we all value most - our dignity, independence, family relationships, even our life savings - becomes barter overnight. In essence, our very lives become negotiable. In the mere blink of an eye, the concept of "safe harbor" vanishes from our lexicon. Oddly enough then, against this backdrop I consider my diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease as a stroke of good luck. Unlike Christopher Reeve, I've had time to familiarize myself with my opponent: to take inventory, to prepare myself. Unfortunately, a significant number of those reading this will not have the good fortune I did.
    You will meet your adversary suddenly, abruptly, with little warning

    Jousting Rod & Custom magazine staged an annual "Tiny Bear Run" that featured a scramble event and a variety of field events that managed to combine skill with goofiness. Pictured above are two riders duelling it out in the balloon bustin' event in 1962. In this event, riders were armed with rolled up newspapers, had balloons fastened to their helmets and were told that the last one to emerge from the fray with balloon intact was the winner.

    How we made our Jousting Horses It is my purpose to describe how Tor an Riogh built their jousting horses. Gleann Abhann's Knights Marshal then approved the use of these horses for our event Materials needed for a horse 50 Gallon Plastic Drum. Hand truck with 10" pneumatic tires 2 casters with 10" pneumatic tires 1 sheet of 3/4 Plywood Steel Channel 3ft long 2 X2 Lumber about 8 feet (we used scrap 2X4 and ripped it) 2X4 Lumber about 8 feet (we used scrap) 3 cargo straps(ratchet type) Straw Door mat (half circle for saddle) foam rubber (we used cushions off of a couple of couches we found on the side of the road) Suede leather Dry wall Anchors (heavy duty at least 1/4 inch bolt) Duck Tape (lots of it) Construction of the horses THE HEAD Once you have finished this, fill out his chest with the scrap foam and duck tape it down. We used just enough duck tape to hold it in place the covered it with the fabric from one of the cushions. Use The suede to give the horse some ears and a muzzle, Sorry No Pattern, but do your best it really helps the appearance. We also added some large plastic eyes THE TAIL Staple wire fencing (Chicken wire) over the opening so nothing can get in it. Then add at least an inch of foam rubber to protect the rider if he falls. We use more fabric from the cushions to hold the padding in place. Make sure you lap over the back with the foam and that you can't feel and sharp corners. With this completed the body of the horse is done. It is time to make the frame.
