BITE CLUB Code of Conduct:
Players MUST sign our waiver to wrestle! Find @The_Lady_V to sign up for the event. Sign-ups will be available online a week prior to the event.
Anyone is allowed to wrestle! Matches must be 1v1. You are allowed to tag out with another player.
5 seconds to pin! Based on your feedback we are cutting pin time down for safety & flow of the night.
Intensity and specifics of play are always negotiable. Please discuss with your sparring partner(s) beforehand any relevant injuries or physical limitations that they should be aware of.
NO chokes! NO joint manipulation! NO takedowns/body slams!
Paws stay closed! no punching, slapping or kicking. pushing and clawing may be OK.
Biting/nipping/hair pulling is allowed but please, no blood!
Our group safeword is 'STOP', pinching a partner or tapping out, this immediately ends any match.
We suggest friends to remove hanging jewelry/pokey objects before tumbling. If possible, try to keep finger/toenails short to prevent injury to yourself and others (mind the acrylics!).
Lastly, please remember to stay hydrated!

SAFTEY IN DTLA
Please be mindful of your surroundings when arriving and leaving.
