JanMincénte: a male Human Jedi Master sporting a mustached look, existed around 345 BBY. He was an instructor of Jedi Padawans at the Jedi Temple's Jedi academy on Coruscant, teaching them lightsaber combat. To train them, JanMincénte engaged his pupils in lightsaber fencing duels, but found that his constant victories were not teaching them effectively, and he became bored.
To allow students to evaluate their capabilities through direct competition, he established the Lightsaber Fencing Tournament. This competition became a popular method for Jedi students to prove their worth, and it remained in use for a period spanning at least 150 years.
