My son wrestled a kid wearing tights this w/e under his singlet. He said it was difficult holding onto his legs as his arms slipped on tights. Wouldn't this be considered a competitive advantage and is there any bylaw on tights.

Wait til you get a kid with a piece. It's like vaseline.

Kids, High School and Even College wrestlers all wear tights. Totally within the rules.

The guy with tights on belongs in the same category as the kid with 2 knee pads, the kid with stupid socks pulled up, and the kid with that dumb*** headgear with the front cover:) good day all

OK.... I agree with the stupid socks. But the kid with 2 knee pads, may be talented enough to shoot with either leg, and the kids with the "dumb*** headgear front cover". The Ball family all wear those, and I am not saying that is why they are good, but if it helps maybe more wrestlers need to go to that dumb*** front cover.

Socks are where it is at brother, no matter how ridiculous we may find them. Side note: Kids that wear tights don't have to worry as much about Ringworm, Herpes,or all of the other lovely funk that wrestlers get.

One of my boys received a concussion playing football a couple years ago. Even though he was cleared to wrestle he wasn't comfortable with his tornado headgear. I bought him one the those headgears so he felt protected on the mat.(Worth a every dime!)He wore it almost two years before he went back to the tornado headgear.

Thanks for all your info, I also asked at practice tonight and found tights to be within the rules. A little questionable in my opinion but legal. My son sent that boy back to TX with a 2nd place medal anyway,

My freshman year in high school we wore tights. Personally, I didn't care for them. What I really hated though was our warm up tops. We looked a little like Kung Foo Warriors (not sure if that worried our opponents or just made them laugh). One thing you really couldn't do with them effectively was "warm up".
