Ozlijede na nastupima

Evo citat od jedne inozemne HEMA grupe:

For the last few years, MACS has provided marshalls and judges for all the major re-enactment tournaments, mostly because we are willing and have the personnel. We’ve had a problem with one group, whose instructor tends to be lax on armour regulations, and keeps putting unskilled people into tournaments, but the nature of the association is such that it is hard to throw somebody out, or forbid fighting.

So, last weekend they held a large number of displays without us- the venue was too far, the requirements uncertain, and we simply don’t do displays. Anyhow, our favourite instructor put two of his unskilled fighters in the ring, in what is described as “inadequate armour”, and stood as marshall. And then one of his fighters put a sword through an eye slot into the other’s eye socket.

The damage has been described to me as follows: “The doctors were able to save the eyeball, and believe the brain damage to be minimal”.

Sve je divno i krasno dok netko ne ostane bez oka. Zašto se ovo nas tiče?
Slična rasprava se održala na ovogodišnjem Dreyneventu. Problem je što takvi ljudi bacaju loše svjetlo na čitavu zajednicu, kako scenskog mačevanja, tako i mačevanja kao borilačke vještine;

Again, glad to hear you guys did not attend. Just remember, the public, and the politicians, do not distinguish between these groups and legit HEMA……

Naša je uloga kao profesionalne grupe obrazovati ljude, distancirati se od scenskog, te prakticirati sigurno mačevanje, jer jednog dana kada na naslovnici Večernjeg lista osvane vijest da je netko ostao bez oka na viteškom turniru, nitko neće pitati tko je iz koje grupe.

Komentari su dobrodošli, možda sam u krivu :)
