helmets and gloves

Helmets and gloves is a form of boxing played before or after a hockey/lacrosse practice/game. Two participants wear their hockey/lacrosse helmets and gloves while the rest of the team watches. The object of the game is to punch the other person in the head as much as possible. ONLY punches to the head are allowed. Match ends when one person gives up or gets knocked down. A common game among teenage hockey/lacrosse players to see who is tougher.
Player 1: Wanna go helmets and gloves after the practice???
Player 2: Sure.
