My only request would be knee pads, and if they get a matching weapon/ defensive item, knee pads would be of no use to them.

I think this aspect was overlooked by almost everyone. Not only would stamina be a factor, but also the punishment your fists, knees, and elbows would take. The human skull is extremely hard and after kneeing 4 or 5 kids your knee would really hurt and make it hard to run away. If you went with punching, you would eventually break/sprain your wrist.

The most important aspect is how well the kids respond to the training. The instructor would really have to stress working in large groups and going for the legs. If there were an instructor present that would shout instructions the number would drop quite a bit. However, I think that despite the training, as soon as you started running around, their initial gameplan would go out the window and they would not be smart enough to come up with new ideas.
