Got a martial arts tournament coming up, I'm sorted for a groin guard but the rules say all participants require a groin guard. My lad's coming along for the first time, he's 10. Any advice as online searches have come up with nowt?

Thanks, the eBay one at the top was the only one that gave info' that it was specifically for a child and the age. Sorted.

I'd been clicking around the usual Blitz etc.

Check that the competition doesn't have requirements regarding branding. i.e you have to use specific brands of stuff...you might think this not relevant but some choose to wear cod-piece style guards instead of cups.

No need to pay more than a tenner for a guard btw in case you are prone to getting swayed by branding smile

What's the tournament? I took a team of 25 fighters to a tournament yesterday and I am shattered today and I was the coach/manager!!!

Looking forward to it, started it for my lad but once I'd got involved, couldn't stop.

Looks good. 5 euros is cheap!

Good luck to you both!

Ta. Think that must be to get though the door, while since I paid but both of us sparring & forms was about £70.
