Coaches misconduct occurs when an official feels as though a coach’s or team representative’s behavior or lack there of interrupts the normal flow of wrestling. Although there are many behaviors which could be considered as coach’s misconduct it is left to the discretion of the tournament officials as to the penalty assessed for each infraction. Because no team points are kept at many USAW-CT events the following protocol has been adopted and approved. 1^st offence- coach receives a formal warning, 2^nd offence-the opponent receives one match point and the coach is put on attention, 3^rd offence- the opponent receives 2 match points and the offending coach is removed from the building.
