The goose is back, again! Our third intermural tournament will be November 9, 2024. 

This will be the last of the quaterly(ish) intermurals for 2024. We hope to continue the legacy of the Goose tournaments with three events: Open Longsword, Longsword Team Relay, and Cutting.

The cutting event will be done on paper targets (same as AGO, Hornfest, etc.), using a supplied longsword. Rules and feats to follow.

If you have already filled out your registration and would like to participate in the cutting event, please edit your submission or send an email to edmontonhistoricalmartialarts@gmail.com indicating that you wish to take part.

Schedule, rules, and participant rosters are all tentative and will be finalized prior to the event. 

Tournament Intensity Level: Blue Square

Intensity Ratings Guide

Green Circle
Friendly, light competition with low intensity. Events with a green circle rating tend to be more relaxed, focused on light hearted fun and a casual environment.

Blue Square
A friendly event while maintaining a higher intensity competition. Events with a Blue Square rating tend to have high intensity sparring matches, however with still maintaining an objective goal of a friendly and a vibrant atmosphere.

Black Diamond
A high octane intensity competition. While still maintaining safety goals & standards, events with a black diamond rating primary focus is to determine a tournament champion, and will attract the highest levels of competition bringing their absolute best to do so.

Skill Levels:
It is worth noting that these intensity levels are not related to skill: they are related to their intensity level. A grizzled HEMA veteran may enjoy a relaxed, fun Green Circle event whilst a beginner may enjoy the thrill of competition of a Black Diamond event. The goal of these ratings is simply a method to ensure all participants are signing up for an event they are comfortable with
