Intramural Game Rules<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
Advance Sign-up is Required<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Competition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Beach Wrestling is a Tier 4 event, open to all students. Beach Wrestling is a one-day-only competition; no provision will be made for class conflict, Corps Squad practice, etc. The event may require unique athletic skills or physical fitness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roster<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The desired roster size is three wrestlers per company. Varsity wrestlers who have been on Corps Squad for 21 or more days this academic year are not eligible to compete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Per the published schedule, competitors will report to Deas Hall for weigh-ins, conducted by a designee of the Director of Intramurals. Competitors must be clothed for weigh-ins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrestlers will be assigned to an appropriate class after all competitors have weighed in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants with an open wound or infectious skin condition, e.g., impetigo, scabies, herpes, ringworm, may not participate. Current knowledge indicates that bacterial, parasitic, viral, and fungal infections may be transmitted by skin-to-skin contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rules<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Start time is forfeit time: there is no grace period for wrestlers to arrive late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrestlers must be barefoot and wear either a PT uniform (without a belt) or PT shorts and a rash guard. It is recommended that a mouthpiece be worn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each match will be no longer than three minutes. The match winner is the one who scores three points first or has the highest score at the end of three minutes. If there is a tie at the end of the match, the wrestler who scored the last point wins. If the match is tied 0-0, the lightest wrestler wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrestlers begin each match in the neutral position. There is no ground fighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The referee will award points as described:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
