Field herald

"Field herald" is a generic job title. At tournaments, the field herald calls combattants to their assigned field, announces the names of the combattants for each bout, leads the ceremony of salutes, and announces the victor at the end.

Anyone can try their hand at field heralding by simply volunteering with the field herald coordinator (often the local herald or the Bellows herald at kingdom tournaments) following opening court. The coordinator should be able to supply volunteers with a script to follow and advice and support, as needed.
