Colorado Jugger Rules have been finished!

Hello Jugger world!



I have been spending the last month working on it, and wanted to present to you a pdf copy of the Jugger Rules (Colorado Edition)!

Find it here! Colorado Jugger Rules.pdf


I was inspired to create this ruleset from my passion for foam weapon fighting. I have been playing the LARP Amtgard for 18 years. Amtgard has its own form of Jugger called Jugging, and I have been playing that version all this time.
I have looked at German and Australian Jugger over the years, and have always wanted to try it. Jugging/Jugger has been my favorite game to play in Amtgard over the years, and after forming my own foam weapon site, www.foamforge.net, I realized that I had everything I would need to create the pompfen, jugg, and goals. In Colorado, Jugging has been a part of our Amtgard events for as long as I can remember, and I have always heard that people would like to play it more, however Amtgard is a LARP, and their focus is recreating and roleplaying mixed with combat. Jugging has taken a back seat with most groups around the nation, even though it is played, it is rare to see groups playing more than once or twice a year. The main reason is, Amtgard has many other things inside of it, and Jugging is more of a casual activity.

I wanted to change that, I wanted to drop the Elf Ears and Capes, throw on a jersey and just play! I have friends that want to do the same, and so here we are!
We are going to have a weapon building party soon, where we are going to play the original move Salute of the Jugger and build enough gear for a few teams...then practice! ^_^

Thank you all for joining me on this journey, I hope to be able to play all over the world one day!

1st Coruña Open - Galicia, Spain

Greetings, international jugger players! It's been a long time since last time we reported from Galicia (northwestern Spain), but here we are again to keep you updated. The Spanish Jugger Community is growing fast and those who already have been in the trenches for more than 2 years have finally established a strong base in our regions, now hoping to stand still while new or stronger jugger teams appear from now on. Our group, the “Galician Association of Jugger”, actually operates in the cities of Coruña, Vigo and Santiago de Compostela, housing 8 official and stable teams.



Two weeks ago we celebrated the 1st Coruña Open, on February 23, 2013, at the northern city of A Coruña. We were honored to have among us two teams from Madrid and other one from Valencia, besides other galician teams from both Coruña and Vigo. It was the first true experience with other Spanish Juggers, quite small tournament but really distracted and instructive one. We are lucky to have got along with our fellow players, even some of us made new friends or strengthened bonds! Everyone is willing to meet again, hopefully during the 2nd International Tournament (Zaragoza) on April. While we Galician players are already looking for other Spanish Tournaments to travel to Madrid or Valencia in the next months, we're already organising a Jugger Summer Camp on our shores where we'll welcome any spanish, european or worldwide player! (Full information will be provided in the next months).

Here I bring you a small gallery compilation from this tournament, enclosed by some pictures. You can watch full albums on our Facebook Group or visiting our Official Website (v 2.0).
