Mercia is gearing up for a new event that promises to captivate your attention and foster camaraderie among its towns. The inaugural Summer Midland Games, set to debut on the 18th of August, draws inspiration from the prestigious Geneva Tournament, which just celebrated its 21st successful run in March.


Robert Sparky Steele, the Count of Mercia, shared his thoughts on this exciting endeavour:

---

"The inspiration of the games has been the yearly tournament at Fribourg, and the aim is to make this a yearly event too with a winter version held 6 months from now as well.

The activity and participation which one sees in Fribourg for the week of the tournament there is nearly unheard of these days and a similar event in Mercia would do wonders for bringing everyone together in a friendly competitive spirit.

Each of the Mercian towns will be the epicenter of an event.

~ Evesham and Derby: Archery
~ Worcester: Robbing event on Node 489
~ Lichfield: Duelling
~ Derby: Dice poker"

Mark your calendars for an exciting period from the 18th to the 31st of August, 1471. The Summer Midland Games encompass five thrilling events, featuring archery, duelling, poker, and a unique robbery (only on Node 489) Challenge. Rest assured, the robbery event is all in good fun, with no legal repercussions as long as participants adhere to the game regulations. Prizes, ranging from 250 to 750 pounds, add a layer of excitement to the games.


For more detailed information about the Summer Midland Games, including prize breakdowns and event schedules, visit the Mercia Inn where the official announcement was made.


Let the spirit of unity and competition reign in this gathering that promises to help enrich the fabric of our land.
