HPD/Team Leader: The HPD, establishes game plan for competition, or the TL does so in cooperation with HPD (if theTL is not HPD), in consultation with the CEO, as appropriate, and communicates the plan to the head coach(es), personalcoaches and athletes. The TL may not make field of play decisions but may remove a coach/athlete from the competition,with cause.

Head Coach: Responsible for all weight choices, timing choices within the game plan and the guidelines set forth below andhas the final say on all field of play decisions.Personal Coaches: Have the right to serve backstage with their athletes if sufficient passes are available, but they mustoperate under the direction of the head coach(es). In order to be eligible to serve backstage, personal coaches must havepassed the USAW specified background check, and must sign the USAW code of conduct applicable to internationalevents.Entry Totals: TLs and coaches may not generally submit final entry totals that are in excess of the best official total of theathletes being entered, unless the athlete in question has demonstrated significant improvement in his/her condition sincethe performance of that athletes last official total.Default Game Plans: Unless specified otherwise, in advance of the competition, the following game plans will apply (theTL may change these plans in advance, in consultation with the USAW CEO and BOD, if those plans are announced inadvance of the competition):

Olympic Games and Non-Qualifying World and Pan-American Championships: All athletes are expected to make a total,so that they have an actual placement at the Games/Championships. After totals have been secured, athletes and personalcoaches are free to pursue medals and/or the highest possible placement at their discretion.Qualifying World and Pan American Championships (Y, J and S): If a World or Pan American Championship in any givenyear is a qualifying event for the Olympic or equivalent Games and placement counts toward such an event, the head coachwill strive for maximum point scoring. This may mean the choice by the head coach of aggressive attempts for those whoare below the point scoring level without such attempts. In contrast, athletes who are in the point scoring range with theirentry totals will be expected to take attempts that, in the judgment of the head coach, will maximize the points earned bysuch athletes.Fully Self-Funded International Events: Athletes who participate in fully-self funded events are free to choose all of theirown attempts. If an athlete receives any funding from the USAW, this section does not apply, but if an athletes is less than50% funded by the USAW, according to its policies, the athlete may choose to pay for the trip in return for freedom ofchoice with respect to attempts (unless the event is a qualifying event as discussed above, in which case those rules willapply).Averting Any Potential Conflicts of Interest: In the event that a head coach in a qualifying event personally coaches anathlete ranked above any other athlete he will oversee at that event by less than 5%, that head coach will recusehimself/herself from coaching the competing athlete, by reporting the possible conflict to the TL. The TL may then assume,if qualified, coaching responsibility for that lifter, or assign another coach.

Qualifying Events Shall Not Be Final Qualification: Unless forbidden by a superior body (e.g., IWF or USOC) the USAWwill not make an international qualifying event a final qualification for an international team to which the internationalqualifying event applies. For instance, if the Pan American Championship is an international qualifying event, all those whocompete in that event will have an opportunity to compete in a subsequent final trial at which the weight choices will be upto them and their personal coaches. In any USAW approved qualifying period for an international competition, at least onenational qualifying event will be held for qualification for the international competition, unless forbidden by a superior

body (e.g. IWF or USOC).

Financial Impact of Decisions Made at Qualifying Events: Should an athlete be asked by the head coach to attempt a totalthat is no more than 3% lower than the total that athlete would need to secure or improve financial support from the USAWor USOC, the athlete will receive the greater payment by the USAW if he makes the total selected by the head coach, sothat no athlete is disadvantaged financially by being asked to take a lift for the sake of the team.
