[IC] Sparring

[F r a n c o]

** This notice is posted just outside the infantry barracks, mess hall, the bar, and the sparring cage, written in permanent marker and laminated. 

 

Due to recent events, It's become ever clear that I have to tell you lot about sparring and how it should be handled.

 

Firstly, you MUST wear protective gear, being the provided helmets, gloves, and in some cases shin guards.

 

Secondly, there should be NO REASON your spar disables a trooper from performing their duties. What this means is NO HEAVY BLOWS, at any point. If both parties agree, lite grappling may occur. 

 

You're not drop kicking people with the heel of your boot, and you're not upper cutting their jaw as if your life depends on it. If you're still confused as to what a proper sparring match consists of, seek out an NCO and ask for further information. There is no shame in being unsure.

 

All of you need to realise, you're practising with your battle brothers and sisters, not trying to break their limbs and crack their fucking teeth. Fix your shit before the NCOs are forced to fix it for you.
