CAROUSELING
When most people think of jousting, they think of the medieval knights charging against one another for a fair maiden’s hand. What KingS figured out early, was that they lost a lot of good knights to injury that way. Tournament jousting (just called "tournament" in the early days) was the result. Tournament was a way for knights to prove their combat skill and horsemanship, yet avoid unnecessary risk of injury.
Today, jousting (or ring jousting) is a more recreational sport, yet the competitive spirit of the knights and maidens remains alive and well. It is not uncommon for participants and spectators alike to nervously watch and cheer as their favourites take their charge!
