The Kingdom Protector Tournament will be held between 10 AM and 3 PM on Saturday at September Crown with the final rounds being held between 3 and 4 PM. Those wishing to enter must wear garb appropriate to their persona and display a banner that identifies them at Invocation Court on Saturday morning. Period footwear is encouraged. Contestants must present current Combat Authorization and SCA Membership cards to the List. The winner will be expected to defend the King on the war field at An Tir West War and other wars to support the Crown of An Tir. The winner must attend a minimum of four Crown events (12^th Night, May Crown, July Coronation, and September Crown). The Tournament will consist of three qualifying tests of archery skill. A contestant may choose to enter one, two or all three tests of skill.

Castle Arrow Slot Shoot: Entrants must choose between shooting a combat-legal crossbow or a combat-legal hand bow, shoot combat-legal ammunition, and wear a combat-legal helm. They will attempt to shoot 12 arrows or bolts through a castle arrow slot. The highest scorer for crossbow and the highest scorer for hand bow will advance to the semifinals.

Walking Range: A man-sized target will be placed at an unknown distance in the field. Each entrant will advance through 6 shooting stations in a timed round. The contestant will shoot 6 arrows or bolts using target archery gear in the first pass through the range. In the second pass through the range, the contestant will wear a helm and shoot 6 combat arrows or bolts using combat equipment. The highest scorer will advance to the semifinals.

Period Speed Round: Entrants will shoot an end of arrows or bolts in each of two 30-second speed rounds. A period target will be placed at an unknown distance between 15 and 30 yards. Contestants are encouraged, but not required, to use a period hand bow or period crossbow and period arrows or bolts. The highest scorer will advance to the semifinals.

Semifinals: Four semifinalists will be paired into two shooting groups by the List. Two archers will shoot at the same time at an advancing target. One round will be shot using target archery gear. A second round will be shot with the archers wearing helms and using combat archery gear. In the third round, each archer may choose to use combat or target gear as they see fit. To score a point, the arrow must hit the target. Glancing arrows will not count as a hit. The archer with the most hits wins that round. The archer winning two out of three rounds will advance to the final round.

Finals: The two finalists will shoot at the same time at an advancing target. One round will be shot using target archery gear. A second round will be shot with the archers wearing helms and using combat archery gear. In the third round, each archer may choose to use combat or target gear as they see fit. To score a point, the arrow must hit the target. Glancing arrows will not count as a hit. The archer with the most hits wins that round. The archer winning two out of three rounds will be the Kingdom Protector.

Note: In the event where a contestant places first in more than one test of skill, the gentle will pick one of the tests of skill as their qualifier for the semifinals. The contestant placing second in the other test(s) of skill will advance to the semifinals.
