How to use this list
Go through the list as you get ready for your first session. Confirm your course booking and review any clothing instructions from the club. Make sure the club provides the mask, protective kit, and weapon—or make arrangements if they don’t. Pack your personal items in advance so you’re not scrambling last minute.
Common mistakes
A frequent issue is assuming all gear is provided—always confirm that mask, protective kit, and weapon are available. Forgetting long athletic trousers or bringing shoes with marking soles is also common. Don’t overlook required forms; many clubs won’t let you participate without paperwork. Leave jewelry and loose hair at home or tie it back with a hair tie.
