Wellington woman taking on the world’s best medieval fighters

Hidden away from the streets of Wellington, surrounded by 100-year-old houses, is a medieval fighting pit where a handful of armour-clad warriors clash twice a week.
This backyard in Newtown is home to the Felag Club, and some of its members are preparing to take on the world's best medieval fighters in Serbia and the Ukraine next month.
