I read that Anti-tryout and Private instruction rules yesterday. And as I read it one on one personal instruction is fine but in a group is forbidden. I always thought both were off limits.

And at least they gave us a Rational behind the rule. I'm trying to understand the rational behind the outside competition rule. I have a hard time believing that it was set in the malicious manner some believe.

And it does seem to be just a bit out of touch with wrestling. I understand it a little in regards to an entire team traveling. I even understand a individual participating in competition on another team. But from an Individual competing alone as in wrestling's case, it doesn't seem to fit.
