Rose Tournament Format Each Rose will select their customary five representatives -   one fencer, one chivalry, three unbelts. The Roses are welcome to select some or all of their combattants   ahead of time. On the day of the event, before the tournament, all those fighters not   yet chosen will have the opportunity to display their honor and prowess on the field in a pick-up fighting format for the viewing pleasure of the Roses. The Roses may then make their final choices.   Double Elimination between Rose Teams. Each Rose Team consists of one member of the chivalry, one fencer,   and three unbelts. Each bout will consist of five passes -   A pass between opposing Rose's chivalry, followed by three unbelt passes, ending with the fencing pass. The victor will be the Rose whose team has the greatest number of   winning passes in the bout. Roses may pair off their unbelts any way they wish.   Our suggestion: the lower-ranking Rose will present an unbelt.   In response, the higher-ranking Rose will present an unbelt. Alternate the remaining two unbelt passes. In the case a Rose team has fewer than five, the missing members will   count as lost passes.
