Sounds like a good idea.


I would like to also recommend some sparring exercises:

Stay-Alive:
Two teams spar, first team to loose two people looses the spar, if the teams are small, first team to loose one member looses the spar.
Goal is to build team skills to defend fellow team members, as well as how to co-ordinate attacks as a team on specific members of the other team.

Capture:
One team plays defense, other offense, size may vary (ie, depending on difficulty, the defenders or attackers may be larger).

Defenders have to prodect a marker, like a certain rock, that contains a bury bag right under it. Other team gets to see the spot.
Goal, is for attackers to get in, get it, and get out.
Just getting it, even if you die in the process, calls a win.

Perhaps, capture time can be timed, then the teams can switch roles, and best time would win of the two. (if team strengths are equal of course).
