Quick note for anyone competing

by Mike

If you're going to be competing at any level, one of the most important things you can do is to make sure that you have all of your own equipment. Gloves, shorts, mouthguard, cup, gauze & tape, headgear, no foul protector, shoes, whatever may be required.

You may find yourself in a situation where the promoter requires you to use specific equipment that they provide, but in all other situations, it's your responsibility to ensure that you have the necessary gear - don't rely on others to lend it to you and certainly don't assume that you'll find someone at the venue to lend you their gear.

That's all.
