Within Stoccata the “Playing of the Prize” is how we perform a grading for our students. This concept goes right back to the medieval fencing guilds, and was also used as a money making venture by them.
We have recently had several students from our Sydney School of Arms branch and our Newtown branch successfully play the prize. Congratulations to the successful Prize players!
You can watch some of these prizes in the videos below.
