5 minutes to actually bleed but there is no limit on "clean up time". The kid wasn't actually bleeding for 30mins. he did lose the match by blood time though. I just think refs should expedite clean up time
Boach why did you not volunteer your services and assist with the cleanup?
If you were mat side there was nothing to preclude you from assisting in an effort to expedite the cleanup.
At the Southwest Classic in Liberal this past weekend, the two mat officials assisted the mat personnel and coaches in cleaning up the blood on a mat during the finals.
