Fence a short bout — first to the target number of touches. Score by landing the blade on your opponent's scoring zone while defending your own with footwork and parries.

Bout format and target touches set by the kaiwhakawā. Masks and chest protection required; only the equipment provided may be used. Clean, controlled touches only. Log your result as a win or loss with your opponent's name. Extra bouts vs new opponents earn effort points.
