Order of the White Stirrup

The White Stirrup is given to equestrians who serve the equestrian arts in the Kingdom.  Equestrian activities enhance the medieval pageantry at our events!  SCA pursuits include mounted combat, jousting with opponents with foam/wooden lances; and games such as jousting at rings, hitting the quintain, obstacle courses, and archery from horseback. The White Stirrup has the first level of precedence for Kingdom equestrian awards, above an Award of Arms. This award is given at three levels; the level is shown by the color of the ribbon with the award medallion. (more details)

The three levels are:

  • 1st level, blue ribbon
  • 2nd level, white ribbon
  • 3rd level, gold ribbon (highest level)

Black Chamfron
