Warhounds Armoured Combat is South Australia's largest and premier Armoured Combat group. While the Sport's presence in SA was originally established in 2015, the current team was created thanks to a rebrand with new leadership, drive and direction and credits its official creation in 2021.
We train full-contact medieval combat with a specific focus on Buhurt (Group Combat) and Profight (The 1 on 1 MMA style ring fighting format) multiple times a week in our brand new specialised Medieval Combat facility dubbed "The Kennel" 20 minutes from Adelaide CBD.
Warhounds are an active and competitively participating club, and we regularly travel overseas and interstate to train, compete, learn from and mingle with other steelfighting clubs and groups, such as Ballarat Medieval Combat's Western Wolves. In the first year of it's existence, Warhounds placed 4th in the 2022 Nationals Selections tournament, and have performed better than any other previous South Australian competition results, earning medals in multiple categories across different tournaments throughout the club's first year.
Warhounds AC has grown quickly despite being a new team, and enjoys a large membership base of around fifty members, of which twenty are competing armoured fighters, both male and female, and five are nationally accredited HMB Marshals. Warhounds AC additionally fields a women's team, affectionately known as "The Hellhounds".
With extremely impressive and fast growth in the first year of operation, Warhounds AC are looking to expand their training roster to incorporate Kids Classes, HMB Soft, and HMB Duels categories, such as Longsword, Sword & Shield, Polearm, Sword & Buckler and Triathalon.
If you'd like to join the team, we'd love to have you! Absolutely no experience is required. We run structured training sessions for all people from all walks of life in an inclusive and safe space. Whether you're looking to become the best of the best and compete internationally for fame and glory, or whether you're just looking to swing swords, make friends and have fun, Warhounds AC would love to have you join.
