	The Stellar Kingdom of Ansteorra Thrown Weapons Royal Rounds (TWRR) has been founded as a means for thrown weapons participants in the Kingdom to have a set of standardized rules, using standardized targets, with a standardized course of throw (round), at standardized ranged distances, so the throwers can directly compare their abilities to the abilities of throwers in other regions of the kingdom, without the necessity of traveling to the same place at the same time. All SCA rules and regulations, both Society level and at the Kingdom level shall be observed.

The outer most ring, the blue ring, will be 36 inches and worth 1 point.

	The standard course of throw (a round) shall consist of five throws at ~~each of the~~ three distances ~~for each weapon type (knife, axe, spear or plumata) used,~~ for a total of fifteen throws per round per ~~weapon~~. The same weapon does not have to be thrown ~~at the various~~ distances, ~~allowing the competitor~~ to ~~change his weapon from one weapon to another weapon~~ of ~~that type at any time~~ the ~~chooses during the course of~~ a round. ~~It is not required~~ to ~~throw each weapon type, if the competitor does not wish to do so~~. Each weapon type is a separate ~~competitions~~, with separate scoring and rankings.		The standard course of throw (a round) shall consist of five throws of one type of weapon at three distances for a total of fifteen throws per round per division. The same weapon does not have to be thrown for all 3 distances but for a royal round score, all weapons thrown for that score need to be of the same division. (for example, a knife royal round score consists of 5 throws of knives at 10ft, 5 throws of knives at 15ft, and 5 throws of knives at 20ft. Different styles of knives can be thrown but they must all be knives for it to count as a knife royal round.) Each weapon type is a separate division, with separate scoring and rankings.

	The thrower may throw each distance ~~consecutively,~~ or ~~throw one or more practice rounds between distances,~~ as per the marshal's choice. ~~In either case~~, the thrower must declare they are throwing for score ~~for the next round~~ to be official.		The thrower may throw each distance in order or they may change the order as needed per the marshal's choice. As an example, a thrower can throw 5 times at 10ft, then 5 times at 15ft, and end with 5 times at 20ft. That same thrower can also throw 5 times at 20ft, then 5 times at 15ft, and finally 5 at 10ft. No matter the order of distances, the thrower must declare they are throwing for score and then throw a total of 15 times in a row to be official.

	The Standard TWRR target face shall be a multi-color concentric circle target. This target face can be made of paper, cardboard, or other similar material, or can simply be painted on the target backing. The smallest circle shall be a golden circle 3" in diameter and shall count as five (5) points. The next largest ring shall be a red ring 8" in diameter and shall count as three (3) points. The outer most circle shall be blue ring 14" in diameter and shall count as one (1) point. The backing for the target face is left up to the local person running the competition, baronial marshal, or MIC (see Thrown Weapons Marshal’s Handbook for clarifications). It is recommended that for knife and axe throwing, an end grain "round" of wood be used, preferably of a soft wood such as pine or fir. Use of "hard" wood, plywood, or side grain type target backing is discouraged, as it is more difficult to get a knife or axe to stick into this type backing, thereby putting the competitors throwing at it under some disadvantage. In the event that a suitable "end grain" round or equivalent cannot be found with a diameter of 14" or greater, the outer circle may be smaller than the specified 14". But be aware, it will still be counted and scored the same as if it was full size, which will put those competitors throwing at it under some disadvantage also.
