Wrestling rules and regulations

[MCstchamp02]

Hello, I was wondering if anyone new of the rules regarding when practice can begin for Illinois high school wrestling. Also what are the guidelines for off season wrestling or strength and conditioning. I went to ihsa.org but could not find it. I am in the midst of investigating some allegations.

thanks,

Season limits are found at http://www.ihsa.org/activity/wr/calendar.htm

Strength and conditioning: go to http://www.ihsa.org/org/policy/index.htm and review Sec 2-School By-law question 69 and Sec 3-Athletic By-Law questions 220-222

221 and 222 seem to contradict each other.

Many of the rules seem to contradict each other, which is why Athletic Directors are so jumpy!

Rule 222 tries to make the point that you cannot have a team-specific conditioning program outside the regular season; the program must be open to athletes from all sports even if only wrestlers actually attend.
