American Gladiator Event - Equipment

Note:

If you wish to be able to put more kids through each of the events then you should have more of the protective equipment on hand. An extra set of helmets, knee pads, and elbow pads will allow one player to be suiting up while a player is playing the game. But you must be sure to double the number of Gladiators that you have as well. The kids will tire the Gladiators out long before they themselves will tire, so if you increase the number of kids participating in the events you have to increase the number of Gladiators participating as well.
