Team Fragarach, named after the legendary sword of Nuada – the mythical first High King of Ireland

Proudly upholding the fearsome reputation of their namesake, Team Fragarach is based in Dublin and rapidly growing into the largest club in the country. Led by the steady guidance of their experienced captain, David, they are known for their respect, fair play, and relentless fighting style. Their reputation as one of Ireland's toughest teams is hard-earned. Clad in striking green, blue, and white surcoats, they stand ready to face any challenge.

“The Sleeper”

Another fighter from a distant land Petr is a dangerous opponent with a longsword, despite only having been in armour for a short time. He has already travelled to foreign tournaments, proudly fighting for his adopted home. Watch for him in the group fights, his shield is a true work of art.

Gavin Clare

A seasoned member of his club, Gavin is an experienced marshal as well as fighter, so when not in armour he can still be found in the List, running fights and keeping a close eye on the contestants
