Oh I totally agree with what Emma Thomas said - people constantly trying to catch kicks! A few of the guys do that at my gym, and it gets really annoying. I also had my first fight recently - an interclub sparing match - and my opponent tried to catch every single bloody kick I threw. She never succeeded in catching a single one, so there was always this awkward fumble with every kick, and I ended up walking away with a broken toe :wacko: People not knowing how to sweep in clinching is also a big one - the newer guys often get all macho and go for these massive body slams, which is just not necessary, and can be dangerous for your team mates! Or they hesitate, and don't commit, so they fall on you (I have been guilty of that one :unsure: )
