Black Pheon

The Black Pheon recognizes people for their skill and enthusiasm in the use of the bow and arrow.  Throughout the SCA timeline, archery was used for hunting and war, so our competitions are often designed to mimic situations faced by medieval archers.  Archers use recurve bows, crossbows and longbows and there is a focus on natural materials such as wood and feathers in our bows and arrows. The Black Pheon has the first level of precedence for Kingdom archery awards, above an Award of Arms. (more detail)

Azure Archers of Atenveldt

This award is given for excellence in teaching archery and skill with bow and arrow, or crossbow.  This award has a higher level of precedence in our archery awards, above a Black Pheon. (more detail)

Commander of the Azure Archers

The Commander is given to someone who has an Azure Archer and continues to show outstanding mastery in teaching archery plus skill with bow and arrow. This is a very special award as only one may be given out per reign and the Crown puts a lot of thought into their choice.  The award includes a Grant of Arms and has a higher precedence than the Azure Archer.
