Infringements During Contest.
During the pull no competitor may wilfully touch the ground
with any part of his body other than his feet. Persistent slipping
down, or sitting, or touching the ground with the hand is a
contravention of this rule.
Lying on the rope without pulling is not permitted and renders
any team liable to disqualification after a caution.
Turning on the rope is allowed.

"
Pull

or beat.
A " Pull " shall be won when one of the side markings on the
rope is pulled over the side ground line farthest from it or if any
portion of the foot of a competitor crosses the centre ground line.
. Leaving
Go the Rope.
In the event of both teams leaving go the rope before tape has
been pulled over the side ground line farthest from it, " No Pull "
shall be declared, and the pull shall not constitute one of the
requisite number of that heat.
The Judge and his Powers.
There shall be one Judge, who shall have sole control, with power
to appoint assistants. It is within the discretion of the Judge to
disqualify a team for any offence against the rules, even though
only one member of a team offends, and to award the pull to the
opposing side, or he may disqualify the offending team from any
further part in the competition.
