| UPDATED: May 16, 2001 4:15 pm + STAND-UP WRESTLING: Stand-Up Wrestling is the first style learned by people who want to be ranked in the complete system of Wrespon Kickboxing. OBJECT: to remain standing, while making your opponent fall to the ground. "STANDING" = touching the ground with only your feet. "FALLEN" = touching the ground with anything other than your feet. FOULS: *Striking *Biting *Throwing your opponent directly onto his/her neck/head *Dislocating an opponent's joint *Grabbing opponents uniform *Hair pulling IF YOU GRAB YOUR OPPONENT'S CLOTHES, YOUR OPPONENT GETS 1 POINT. ALL OTHER FOULS WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION. Sometimes STANDING submissions are allowed, but only if BOTH contestants agree and are of sufficient rank with submission wrestling experience. START POSITION: *Opponents face each other, in the center of the ring. *Right hand on opponent's left shoulder, Left hand on opponent's right elbow. SCORING: Each time your opponent falls, you get 1 point, UNLESS you foul your opponent, or, both of you fall simaltaneously (in this case, NO ONE scores). Even if you are not touching your opponent, and he/she simply loses balance, you get 1 point. Matches are usually either 5 minutes (usual tournament practice), or 3 points (usual training practice). GEAR: *Cup (males) *Sport bra (females) *Pants, knee-length or longer. Snug around waist, and either baggy or stretchy in the legs to allow for maximum flexibility. *Pullover shirt *Single mouthpiece (a double mouthpiece restricts the breathing too much and is not advised). *Breath-Right Strips are a recommended option.
