How To Avoid Failing a Skin Check

1. SHOWER - immediately after wrestling practices or meets.
Antibacterial soap! Jump in the pool or jacuzzi if you have one.

2. WASH - your wrestling practice clothes regularly (daily is preferred). Wash shower towles/ bed sheets

3. SPRAY - your skin with a product such as KS skin protectant before wrestling.

4. WALK - on wrestling mat only with wrestling shoes (not the shoes you wear outdoors).

5. TREAT - the skin infection at the earliest sign of occurrence.

6. SEEK - the help of a dermatologist if the skin infection does not clear soon.

7. Wash hair with Selsun Blue-Medicated

8. WATCH - for signs of skin infection frequently (have someone check areas you cant see).

9. DONT PICK!

10. RESPECT - those performing the skin checks at meets, they are there to ensure the safety of all wrestlers.

11. WASH YOUR HANDS, FACE, AND BRUSH YOUR TEETH. PUT ON DEODORANT!
