Qualified Weigh-ins

Regarding question #2, the time frame you give would not allow by the rule of 1.5% a week to achieve the desired weight. It's not a suggestion, these are the guidelines were all supposed to adhere to. In talking with several coaches around State, I think the weight management plan is extremely misunderstood. Also you are correct that if you consider bumping a guy up for a competition, you definitely have to pay attention to their weight to not get to big for their normal weight or they must work down again. Hope this helps

True, but by rule the weigh-in is "allowed" just not "qualified".  I think this is one of the issues as the rule is currently interpreted.  Unless weigh-ins are entered into the system when they occur and must be qualified to compete OR wins in events with non-qualified weigh-ins are removed from records for seeing (a nightmare mind you) some instances like the scenario here are bound to occur.
