Really, I thought that was ok as well. Is there a place in the rules where it covers this, or is one of those things that is just understood?

I don't see anything in the rules but I only have the old ones available online, my current copy is at home. There isn't anything about not coaching, either but I think most people understand that coaching is not allowed while the competitors are fighting.

Just a few weeks ago I was at a seminar in Winnipeg where we did a team match. Murao-sensei encouraged us to cheer, although he said normally that was prohibited. Most tournaments I've been to the teams cheer for their members when they are up.

Not sure there's much they can do about the audience cheering.
