There wasn't much of an organization. Two armies lined up looking at each other and when someone gave the signal they ran at each other. Sometimes there were archers who fired volleys of arrows into the opposing army ranks to kill some of them before the massive attack. After the foot soldiers attacked the armed knights would move in and add to the battle. The army that outlasted the other one won.
