    Bam's Pics





    more to follow, but this is our Belegarth group.

    We basically gather together at National events, and bash other folks with foam weapons. We are not a LARP, this is a full contact sport. You can shield bash, shield kick, charge, grapple, full force swings....it's a ton of fun! When we go to events, we fight hard all day, people fear a Cu Sith (Koo Shee) shield charge, and then drink in the wee hours of the morning on homemade mead and beer! A good time is had by all.


    ****Edited with more pics...

    A fine kilted group, though some of the kilts are hidden behind these huge targes. Looks like you have lots of fun.

    Doesn't the foam padding take some of the fun out of the actual bashing?

    No, actually it makes it more fun, cause you know you can fight hard and not hurt each other...much!
