Final of the Oyster Fayre Cup 2008

Fighing in the Final were Tony 'The Spider' Mager and Tom Reynolds, with Tony taking the honours.

Nothing about the fight is staged, the fighters are going full force and full speed with the ultimate goal to score 3 hits on the opponents head. This is a true Medieval fighting sport.

  • what are they chanting? it sounds like "shawn"

  • The chant is "blood"

    Traditionally in backswording you would win by drawing an inch of blood from above the eyeline of the opponents head. This is why the crowd yells for blood. Scoring now is still counted in bloods.
