The UK and Ireland Ladies Passage of Arms 2026 took place last weekend at Loxwood Joust.

A big congratulations to all the ladies who took part. It's great to see the women's side of the sport developing, both in quantity and quality. Ladies travelled from all across the UK and Ireland to compete, and it turned out to be a great event.

I have no doubt many of the ladies who competed will be making waves in the UK and international scene before long.

Thank you to all our sponsors who contributed prizes.
