All Athletes must bring a printed copy of their current USA Wrestling Card to Weigh-Ins.  We will be scanning cards at weigh ins to speed up the weigh in process. All athletes must weigh-in wearing a competition singlet. Athletes need to be present at weigh-ins during their designated time as noted on the schedule at the end of this document. An athlete that weighs-in and competes in the Greco session will have the weigh-in from the Greco session count for their corresponding Freestyle Session without having to weigh-in a second time. Any individual who does not compete in Greco will be required to weigh-in during the set weigh-in time for the Freestyle sessions. No Coaches or parents will be allowed in the medical check or weigh-in area. Athletes should confirm their weight on the check scale prior to entering the weigh-in area, once a wrestler enters the weigh-in area they will have a medical examination completed and proceed to have their weight taken and will not be allowed to leave and attempt to make weight at a later time.   

 

The contestants will be weighed wearing their competition singlet or two piece uniform, (with under-briefs, and female athletes must wear age appropriate undergarment tops) after having been examined by qualified physicians who are obliged to eliminate any wrestler who presents any danger of contagious disease. For USAW competitions, the singlet worn to weigh-in must be an approved competition singlet/uniform without modification. Contestants who choose to weigh-in in a two-piece uniform must weigh-in wearing shorts designed for wrestling, a suitable undergarment, and a tight fitting short sleeved shirt. Contestants may weigh-in wearing a legal singlet and then choose to wrestle in a legal two-piece uniform.

 

  No weight tolerance will be allowed for the singlet or two-piece uniform (for example a wrestler competing at 10U 77 lbs. must weigh-in at 77.0 or less). Contestants must be in perfect physical condition, with their fingernails cut very short. When presented at the scale the wrestler has the right (after two (2) attempts at the first scale) each in turn, to attempt to weigh in on all the official weigh-in scales. These attempts may be made one time only at each scale. No weight reduction methods of any kind can be made between attempts to make weight or in the weigh-in area, and once a wrestler enters the weigh-in area they are not allowed to leave and attempt to make weight at a later time.

 

At all MN/USA Wrestling State Tournaments athletes must weigh at or below the listed weight class. NO ALLOWANCES are given.  Wrestlers will be allowed to change weights at weigh-ins and may move up or down from what they registered for.  If a wrestler is over their registered weight they will automatically be moved up to the next weight class they are eligible for. MNUSAW strongly discourages weight cutting. Young wrestlers should be allowed to wrestle at their natural weight.

 

Medical: Please see the MN/USA Wrestling skin condition form (can be found on our website: www.mnusawrestling.org). Please note that a skin form signed by a physician can be overruled by the on-site tournament medical staff at the tournament based on disease activity.
