With a rich background in historical reenactment and a lifelong passion for horses, Roy brings a unique blend of expertise and dedication to the world of medieval jousting. His leadership and vision have positioned Wild Knights as a leading authority in historical entertainment in Scotland.
Background and Expertise:
- Equestrian Journey: Roy’s journey with horses began in 2006. After years of intermittent riding, he committed to consistent training in 2012. His equestrian skills are a cornerstone of his jousting expertise, allowing him to perform with precision and grace.
- Training and Development: In 2015, Roy began formal jousting training at Historic Equitation, inspired by the Easter Joust at the Royal Armouries. By 2017, he was performing at prestigious English Heritage sites, honing his skills in historical combat and establishing himself as a professional jouster.
- Military Experience: Roy’s military background adds discipline and strategic insight to his jousting performances. His time in the army led to a significant milestone—purchasing his first horse, Bella, with his operational bonus. Bella was a beloved companion in his early jousting endeavors and helped Roy establish his career in the field.
- Current Steed: After Bella’s passing, Roy found a new partner in his jousting journey: Uggy, a majestic Percheron known for his strength and agility. Uggy’s remarkable presence and loyalty have made him an integral part of Wild Knights, embodying the spirit and vigor of medieval warhorses.
