Hmmm. Any way you and some of the other guys can get there early or stay after to get some rounds in? We do that quite a bit at my gym. Sometimes the coaches are there and sometimes they aren't. It's not strictly allowed but we're all pretty mature about it so they're not worried about us killing each other.
We've done that a bit, we just get in a lot of trouble when we get caught. This tournament is going to be my last one in my current location before I box with the air force so I'm not too worried
