A clinch can be part of sparring strategy in a variety of situations. When your opponent attacks, you can counter with a clinch. When you attack, your opponent may try to clinch. Both of you might kick at the same time and end in a clinch. Punch and combination techniques can easily disolve a clinch. Usually punching attack is used at close distances to stop forward motion or push the opponent forward to gain some space for the combination attack.
Another way to counter when you're in a clinch situation is with a crescent kick. Punch your opponent's chest then deliver a crescent kick to the head. The punch is not for scoring but rather to stop your opponent's forward motion and to create distance for the kick.
