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 maximum weight allowed for a division, the wrestler must wrestle up in the next age division.
Hospitality will continue to be provided free of charge for coaches on the Club Coach List, as identified by the designated wristband. Any coaches exceeding the club list must pay $15.00
There are no refunds for this event.
Out-of-State coaches please send coaching credentials to the Tournament Host.
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)
