Weigh-ins-

• All no-show wrestlers are to be given to the head table at the close of weigh ins. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR REMOVAL OF SCRATCHED WRESTLERS AND PROPER TOURNAMENT SET UP AND OPERATION.
• This is a wrestle back for true second tournament and there is no seeding, therefore we will bracket wrestlers from lightest to heaviest and we will separate wrestlers from the same club if possible.
• Weigh-ins will begin at 7:00am and close at 7:45 am SHARP. All wrestlers must be present at the beginning of weigh-ins. You will not be allowed to leave the area to run-off any weight.
• A skin check will be performed on every wrestler during the weigh-ins. We have professional medical personnel on site and anyone with suspicious skin problems will be removed from the tournament unless accompanied by a doctors note. The trainer has final say.

Weight Classes

• A Madison weight class system will be followed. All wrestlers will be grouped relative to both their age and weight.
• When weighing-in each wrestler must weigh in wearing a competition singlet.

Coaching

• Only coaches who hold a current USA Wrestling coaches card will be permitted to enter the mat area.  Coaches Card must be worn on a lanyard and visible.
• A maximum of two people is allowed in each wrestlers corner. You will not be permitted to hang around the wrestling surfaces unless you are coaching. If the wrestler is on deck or in the hole they must sit down or be off to the side and not blocking the spectator's view.
• You will not be permitted to bring video cameras onto the competition area, unless you are authorized to be on the mat as a coach. The two coaches rule still applies and the coaching requirements above also apply. This area will be limited to wrestlers, coaches and tournament personnel.

Miscellaneous

• The wrestling surfaces will be cordoned off from the General Public. Only coaches with the proper identification will be allowed in this area when they have someone wrestling. We will be constantly monitoring this area and removing people who should not be there, if you are found to be in violation of these rules, you will be asked to leave the premises.
• There will be an area where food and drinks can be consumed. You must comply with staying in this area when eating or drinking.

The Code of Conduct Rules will be strictly enforced.
