Who is responsible for addressing disciplinary issues observed on the platform?

• A. The announcer
• B. The lifter's coach
• C. The audience
• D. Head Referee after reporting by referees

Answer: (D)

Disciplinary actions on the platform are handled through the officials on site. Referees monitor each lift for safety and rule violations and are responsible for identifying and documenting any disciplinary issues. When something occurs, these referees report it up to the Head Referee, who has the authority to review the incident and impose the appropriate penalties or corrective measures according to the rules. The announcer, the lifter’s coach, and the audience don’t have the authority to discipline athletes; their role is to observe or raise concerns, while enforcement rests with the Head Referee after referees report. This keeps the process consistent and provides due process.
