What are the minimum requirements for a registered member to act as a second?

• A. 18 Years Of Age Or Older And Hold A Current Coach Certification
• B. 21 Years Of Age Or Older And Hold A Current Coach Certification
• C. 18 Years Of Age Or Older And Hold A Current Referee Certification
• D. 18 Years Of Age Or Older And Hold A Current Medical Certification

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is who is qualified to serve as a second in a boxing match. A second works in the fighter’s corner and needs to provide coaching, guidance, and safety awareness during the bout, so the credential that fits that role is a current coach certification. Being 18 or older ensures the person is an adult, and having a coach certification confirms they’re trained to advise and support the fighter.

The other options point to credentials for officials or medical roles, which are not what a second is responsible for. A referee certification is for officiating the fight, and a medical certification covers medical duties, not corner coaching. The 21-year-old requirement isn’t part of this role, so the combination of being 18+ and holding a current coach certification is the correct one.
