Something we've started to do a lot more of, continuous sparring!

some of the UK tournaments use continuous sparring rules, you basically fight until one person reaches 10 or so points, OR to the first "Deep target"

Here me and Steve simply played until one of us scored 3 hits, then we would reset.

This kind of sparring is super helpful as you have to defend yourself at all times and cannot easily get away with overcommitted attacks or kamikaze entries.
