  1. I also thought rule 7-5-2 was interesting - https://www.nfhs.org/sports-resource-content/wrestling-rules-interpretations-2016-17/

    SITUATION 5: The head coach of Team Bulldogs is excited about the move his Wrestler A is applying to Wrestler B. In his excitement, the coach gets out of his chair and moves closer to the action to encourage his wrestler. The referee penalizes the coach for unsportsmanlike conduct. RULING: This is a violation of Rule 7-5-2, which states that coaches are restricted to the chairs/bench while the clock is running and during normal out of bounds and resumption of wrestling. The coach may only move toward the mat during a charged time-out or at the end of the match. Rule 7-5-3 requires the coach to be penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct for violation of Rule 7-5-2.

     


  2. I tried to find the current rules on this and I couldn't without paying for the rule book. I did find something on it at http://matref0.tripod.com/Articles/CMC_and_USC.pdf

    As per rule, (NFHS 7-5-4) a coach is permitted to address the referee at the scorers table when the coach feels that the official has erroneously applied a rule.

    When the coach feels an error has been made, he should approach the scorer’s table and the referee can conduct the conference when there is no significant action taking place on the mat. Officials should meet with the coach and listen to the coach’s comment(s). Coaches should conduct their discussion in a sportsmanlike manner and Officials should let the coach speak and allow him to finish. After the coach has finished, one of two things shall occur: 1) the official agrees that some type of error occurred and will take action to correct the error or 2) the official does not agree with the coach or the coach questioned the referee’s judgment and will receive a warning for coach misconduct. Again, the misconduct warning and subsequent penalties are charged to the head coach regardless if an assistant coach initiated the conference. 

     


  3. PLACEMENT OF WRESTLERS INTO BRACKETS

    Please carefully review the bracketing section of the instructions to ensure that things are handled correctly

    • The region tournament will be wrestled and scored to six places in each bracket
    • There will be a full wrestle-back tournament in each weight class at the region tournament
    • All regional wrestling brackets shall be placed in the proper 4-, 8- or 16-person bracket
    • A 12-person bracket may not be used as the NFHS wrestling rules require a bracket of a power of 4
    • Each weight class must be considered separately as to bracket size
    • A weight class with 1-4 wrestlers shall use a 4-person bracket; 5-8 wrestlers shall use an 8-person bracket and 9-16 wrestlers shall use a 16-person bracket
