In 1997, Shane Adams entered his first competitive tournament at the U.S. International Jousting Championships in Estes Park, Colorado. On a borrowed horse, using unfamiliar equipment, he rose to the challenge and won the title.
From one member in 1997, to over ten full-contact competitors in 2005, the Knights of Valour Jousting Troupe is growing and continues to be the premier full-contact jousting troupe in North America. |
