We ask that spectators please remain off the arena floor so the tournament can run smoothly. Wrestlers and coaches only on the floor. Only 2 coaches in a corner. Coaches will need to check in to get their wristbands. Coaches with a USA Coaches Card will receive a coaches band. Others can purchase a floor pass for $15. NATIONAL TEAM QUALIFICATION All wrestlers in all divisions qualify automatically for the Western Regional Championships in Pocatello, Idaho in June. Wrestlers can wrestle any weight class they would like at West Regionals. They can wrestle lower or higher than what they wrestled at State. This tournament is also the official qualifying event for all Utah National Teams for Schoolboys, Cadets, and Juniors. Wrestlers must qualify at the weight at which they intend to compete at the National Duals and/or at the Asics Cadet & Junior National Championships in Fargo (challenge matches will happen in the case weights are different). The champions of the Schoolboy, Cadet and Junior divisions win the right to be on the national teams for the national duals events. Junior division champions also win the right to represent Team Utah at the Junior Western Duals. Only the top 3 placers in the Cadet and Junior divisions gain automatic qualifying spots for Fargo (there are other ways to qualify for Fargo so even if you dont place in the top 3 you will most likely be able to attend Fargo if you want to). In the event that any of the top three placers for Fargo, do not have their National Teams deposits (explained below) paid online by the national teams deposit deadline, any open spots on the national team will be open to the next highest placer in the weight class. In the event the Freestyle & Greco State Champions do not have their deposit paid online for the National Duals Teams by the deposit deadline their spot will be open for the coach to fill. Challenge Matches For those athletes that are wanting to go one weight for Fargo and another weight for the duals and also those that do want to participate in the duals but do not end up winning their weight at state you do have a chance to challenge for the dual spot at a different weight. Please see our website (www.wrestleutah.com) for complete details on challenge matches.
