sparring with kids

[pacificsting]

im just going to keep this short and sweet. would u spar when your coach asks yo to spar with kids in your gym ages 8 to 13 prepping for their bouts? I'm the smallest and shortest active fighter in my gym.

I'd spar an 8 year old regardless of what my trainer tells me.

Hey guys I just made a new account and need to let you all know that I'm a female.

Either PM me your pics and I'll confirm or stop larping as a female. Attention whoring hope the kids knock you spark out.

depends what you mean by "spar". Drills and messing around are fine but i wouldn't feel comfortable properly sparring with anyone that young. For the same reason i've always found it difficult to spar with females or males multiple weight classes below myself.

I would absolutely never spar with anyone who is 8. They should be practising against other kids under the supervision of a qualified instructor. If they were to get hurt in anyway it would get very complicated and ethically questionable.

You are well within reason to tell your instructor that you are not comfortable with it and refuse to partake.

lol . i must say it has been interesting. i still do have conflicting feelings regarding it

[pacificsting]

ah no. female boxers are actually not so uncommon.
