Start with comfortable training clothes and water. Ask your coach whether gloves are available to borrow for your first session.

For your own kit, explore boxing gloves and hand wraps. Glove weight and wrap length depend on your fit and the session: ask your coach before choosing. Sparring needs separate approval and appropriate protective kit.

Wear clothing that lets you move freely and bring water. Confirm the class requirements before buying equipment.

Gloves and wraps are a useful place to start. Partner drills may also need shin guards and a mouthguard; your coach can confirm the right protection and fit. You do not need to buy a complete sparring kit for a first class without checking.

Start with comfortable clothing, water and a conversation with the coach about the child's class and equipment needs.

Choose equipment sized for the child. Check the product size guide and ask for help with glove weight, hand fit and protection before ordering. Adult equipment is not automatically suitable for children.
