I sustained my first injury...and it's not by the weapon (sword)!
We were practising the importance of priority in foil sparring (you need to show your priority to get your point), hence the instructor gave us gloves to try to hit each other's shoulders (got to partner someone) with the gloves. Priority means showing that you're the one who attacked first.
I managed 2 hits/points with this person, but got this wound after I scored 1 of the points; after I hit, she did a flick of the glove (reflex action) resulting in this welt (probably from the velcro).
Fortunately, it didn't hit my face.
Anyway, I scored the victory. :)
