We are still looking for family activities coordinators! In addition to the Arts & Sciences classes that are open to all ages, we want youth-specific activities and games at the War. 

Please email EventStewards@antirwestwar.org if you can help out. Let the Stewards know if you have passed an SCA approved background check; youth activities in the SCA require some adults to have this. To learn about getting an SCA background check, please go to your Kingdom’s website or ask your local Seneschal to learn how it is handled where you live.

Youth Armored Combat

We’ll have melees and a tournament, just for youth! Baron Brynjarr Olfúss and THL Gaius Aurelianus Felix (Fel) are coordinating some excellent combat opportunities for youth at An Tir West War 2026. More details coming soon.

Combatants should bring their own equipment and have attended at least one official practice prior to An Tir West War. A legally responsible adult must accompany minors to youth combat activities. To learn more in general about Youth Armored Combat in the SCA, visit https://www.sca.org/resources/martial-activities/youth-combat/ 

Do you want to become a Junior Marshal in An Tir, for Youth Armored Combat? You can do this DURING the YAC activities at this war! Our coordinators know there is a shortage of Marshals in some areas of the Kingdom, and they are providing an opportunity to help change that. 

Ranged Weapons

Thrown weapons and archery activities are open to youth. Remember that an adult must accompany minors to the range. 

The Gnome Trail to the creek

This fun, hidden pocket of the War site all started with a girl who had an idea! Find the gnomes and enjoy the twisting path to dip your feet in the creek.
