We host a fighting practice every Saturday at South Lakes Park in Denton, TX! You can find us set up at Pavilion #1. We start arriving at 11 am and fight until we get tired, usually around 3 to 4 pm. Our practices involve a mix of 1v1 combat, line battles, and battle games. No experience, money, or equipment is required - just show up and we'll teach you how to fight!
For up-to-date practice information, please join our Discord or Facebook group by clicking the icons below! We announce practice details every week, including cancellations due to weather or other events. It's also a great place to ask any questions you may have before coming out.
If you are new, the only thing you have to bring is yourself! However, here are a few things we suggest bringing if you have them:
Water & Electrolyte Drinks
Foam fighting is a physically demanding activity and Texas can be very hot. Forget to bring water? Don't worry, we bring extra water and Gatorade to every practice to share.
Sunscreen
The sun is a deadly laser and will burn you if you let it. While there is some shade, we primarily fight out in the sun - sunscreen is highly recommended.
Knee Pads
Not required, but if you already have knee pads from another sport like volleyball or paintball you may find them helpful if you get hit in the leg and choose to fight on your knees.
Fantasy/Medieval Garb or Athletic Clothing
We fight in fantasy and medieval inspired garb. If you have garb from another LARP, Renaissance Fair, or similar activity, feel free to wear it! Just make sure you are comfortable doing physical activity in it. If you don't have garb, we recommend wearing athletic clothing appropriate for the current season.
Boffer/Foam Weapons
No equipment, no problem! We have plenty of loaner weapons and shields for new fighters to use. However, if you come from another boffer sport and have weapons you would prefer to use, bring them to practice and we can tell you if they are legal to use in Belegarth.
