SO YOU THINK YOU KNOW THE RULES

19 November 2009 330 views No Comment

See how you do; a few simple scenarios.  I’ll post the answers later.http://www.insidetexaswrestling.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=3579&sid=3d9dac3acbcbb3c290fdc0ff30c4f8ca

A) Wrestler A lifts the opponent off the mat and, while Wrestler B is in the air struggling to get free, Wrester A loses control and Wrestler B falls to the mat and is injured – Is there a penalty? If so, what would it be? What would be the proper sequence of events following this incident?

B) At the beginning of the 2nd period Wrestler A has choice. The official mistakenly gives Wrestler B the choice, and B chooses top. B then pins Wrestler A – What should happen?

C) Wrestler A takes an injury timeout in the first period. In the second period Wrestler A takes his 2nd injury timeout. In the third period Wrestler B applies a Figure 4 to the head of Wrestler A while both are still in a neutral position. Wrestler A is injured from this move – Is there a penalty? If so, what would it be? What would be the proper sequence of events following this incident?

D) Wrestler A is injured, and during injury time her nose begins to bleed. What would the proper sequence of events be following this incident?

E) Team A travels to a tournament out of town. During weigh ins in the 135lb class, Team A’s 160lb wrestler attempts to enter the room to join his team. What would the proper sequence of events be following this incident?

F) Wrestler A checks in at the table for her match. Then, before walking onto the mat, she goes to her corner to talk to her coach. Is this a penalty? If so, what would the proper call be?

G) Wrestler A checks in at the table for his match. He then walks onto the mat and picks up his ankle band and goes out of the circle to his corner to talk with his coach. Is this a penalty? If so, what would the proper call be?

Full article:

A.  if you lift a wrestler off the mat, you are responsible for their safe return no questions asked.  It is 1 penalty point and if the wrestler cannot continue, DQ.

B.  Period is restarted and wrestler A gets choice. 

C.  Even neutral figure 4 is legal (just not scissors).  3rd injury time = DQ.  After 2nd injury time, other wrestler gets choice at start of period also.

D.  Stop injury time and start blood time.

E.  Never seen any problem with this and didnt know there was a rule regarding this.

F.  Depends.  If the coach is assisting in putting on the ankle bands then you cant say much.

G.  This happens EVERY single dual meet.  Dont see the problem and if there is  a rule its stupid.
