What areas do you cover?
We mainly cover Kent, Essex and London although we do take bookings from much further afield, why not give us a call and see if we can accommodate you.
How do we bookup & Pay?
When you book the sumo suits we may require a £50 deposit to confirm the booking, then when we arrive at the event we will require the rest of the payment in cash prior to setting up. Deposits can be taken as cheque or credit card via paypal.
How long does it take to put suits on?
It takes about 20 seconds to put the suit on.
How does sumo wrestling work?
Opponents stand opposite one another at the edge of the ring, someone shouts
"1 , 2 , 3 , SUMO!!" then they hurl themselves at one another. First person to be pushed over or outside the ring is the loser of that round. Normally best of 3 is played. A typical round would last a minute
How much notice is required to book?
We prefer as much notice as possible, especially if your event is during the weekend, however we are able to take short notice bookings subject to availability.. Why not call and check with us.
How much does it cost?
Sumo suit hire costs from £70 for kids sumo, £90 for adults sumo and £125 for kids and adults. Although due to many variables like distance, time etc these might differ to the final cost we give you. The best thing to do is to get in touch and let us give you a price for your event. A typical hire period is 4 hours.
Cancellations
If you have to cancel any booking for any reason the following terms apply: More than 30 days notice, 50% of your deposit will be refunded, less than 30 days and you will lose the deposit paid. If you want to cancel due to bad weather and inform us before the day you will only lose the deposit. If you cancel on the day then the full amount will be due.
Weather and Cancellations
We would love to be able to control the weather and let you have a sunny day for your event, although as you know the weather in the UK can be a bit unpredictable. When you are hiring the sumo suits we can supply a marquee that will cover the ride and in cases of light rain you will stay nice and dry. This costs an additional £25.
If you are worried about the weather spoiling your day and wish to cancel, we ask for as much notice as possible, we will need to be told before the day otherwise the full amount will be due ( see cancellations above ) but if you do want to not go ahead with the day, you don't have to lose your deposit, just ask us for a "Rain Check" and we will hold your deposit and you can then rearrange for later date.
What happens on the day/night?
For the sumo suits, we will deliver them to you at an agreed time, then go through with you how to put them on and how to use them. We will then come back at an agreed time to pick them back up.
The sumo suits ( or any other equipment that is supplied unsupervised ) will be the responsibility of the hirer and you will need to ensure that sufficient adult supervision is provided throughout the hire period. We can supply staff to supervise ( or referee as we like to call it ) at an additional cost and they will get everyone involved and ensure everyone is having fun throughout the event.
Safety
For outdoor events it is preferable that the sumo is operated on grass.
The sumo suits are very safe to use, please note the users MUST wear the neck brace and helmet, and children must be supervised at all times.
Are we insured
Yes we have full public liability insurance when we are in attendance during any hire.
