You are the CHAIRMAN.  Red has a legal arm-bar on Blue.  Red has turned Blue two times into danger. As the third turn begins, the arm bar becomes illegal, however, Red successfully completes the turn.  What is your call?

ANSWER:  Article 52. R2, R2, No points. Restart Standing. Tim Pierson

Daryl Drew · As Chair I would call a conference. If team agrees move was illegal then Red does not score third turn. Give attention to Red. Restart standing

Otje Siswanto · Call a quick conference. If the referee or/and judge agree, no point is awarded for the third turn. Caution for Red, RO B1. Restart in the parterre position, Red underneath and Blue on top.

Richard Chamberlain · If the team does not see it, call a quick conference and see if the team will agree that the arm bar was illegal and Red does not score. If they agree, let the coaches know of the decision. Restart Standing.
