MADISON SYSTEM (Grouping based on actual weight) will be used to groupd wrestlers into round robin brackets This is a popular method because it discourages `weight cutting` in young athletes. Our Goal It is oriented towards receiving matches since it allows nearly everyone to compete regardless of the draw makeup. Our approach is to always provide matches for entrants, regardless of their size, age, or sex while at the same time encourage fun rather than weight loss problems. Wrestlers are placed in competition pools where everyone is within close weight and two years age of each other. While in most instances this approach can be followed exactly, in the case of a small tournament entry, adjustments may sometimes be necessary. Note: Adjustments outside the closeness of weight/2 yr rule should only be made with the competitors consent because of limited matches.
