Information
Only coaches and upcoming wrestlers are allowed on the mat. No Exceptions.
TAYW Standards will be used for age divisions and weight classes.
The wrestle-back format will be used to determine a true second place finish.
Coaches must maintain a visible USA Card to be allowed on the mats and in the hospitality room.
Only two coaches are allowed in the corner during a match.
If your wrestler exceeds the max weight allowed for a division, the wrestler must wrestle up in the next age division.

Double Bracketing
To accommodate as many wrestlers as possible, wrestling up in a second age group will ONLY be allowed on a space-available basis on the tournament day. A ?Double Bracketed? wrestler will pay the $20 fee in cash on the event day if he/she can be accommodated. A wrestler will not be accommodated if it will mean increasing to a larger bracket size (i.e. 16 wrestlers are registered in a weight class. We would not allow an additional wrestler to force the group to a 32-man bracket)
