Guardian Defence

All students should strive to own their own protective equipment as soon as practicable. Below is a guide to when and what equipment to acquire. All items are available for purchase from the centre.

These coloured arrow shape stripes allow for easier identification of rank, which assists both instructors and students to train at the appropriate level for the students present. Upon passing your grading you will be presented with one stripe corresponding with your rank achieved. If you require further stripes for additional T-Shirts, these may be purchased for $4 each. You will only be permitted to purchase stripes for rankings that you have achieved.

Please follow the guidelines below when wearing your ranking stripe.

• Ranks are to be displayed only on official Guardian Defence Shirts. Please check below for the correct location to sew your rank stripe.
• Only one stripe is to be displayed. This must be your highest consecutive rank achieved. For example: If you have graded Unit 1 and Unit 3, you are only permitted to display your Unit 1 stripe until you have completed your Unit 2 grading. After which you are permitted to display your Unit 3 stripe.
