So with all the new people we have been having two things need happen.
1) if you have been fighting since last season, you need to have or be proactive about getting your own gear. Great example of that would be maas. Last year maas started fighting and this year he has already contacted and made efforts of making his own stuff. Another great example is onyx and imp have already started working on their own gear as well. The loaner gear is for people starting out and haven't had time or the knowledge to start making the time and money investment (minimal on both accounts) to make their own gear
2) we need to make more loaner weapons. It is the beginning of March and already we have close to 20 person practices. This is the season I wanna break 30 people practices. That being said the things we normally need are rolls of blue foam, tape and dap, we have cores for the most part for weapons. In terms of shields we need foam though. I have a friend that I buy 9x4 sheets of shield foam from which makes 6 2x3 punch shields. I would like to order more and get it at the Olympics. One sheet runs around $45. I have two options. You can donate money and I will use it to get the foam, covers, handles and glue to make them. It will cost around $70 to make 6 shields if i buy a whole sheet. Now if you donate money they will go to the community pile and we will love you and newbies will sing the praise of your name. The other option is you can outright pay $15 and the shield will be yours to your specifications (staying with the 2x3 parameters) upon completion.
Feel free to contact me at practice, interwebs or phone
