Weigh-ins and Weight Audit: We will not be doing a full-blown on-site weigh-in of every wrestler. We will use the weight that the parents signed their wrestler up at during registration to pre-build all the brackets. We are using the “Honor System” with parents to correctly select their wrestlers’ weight class. We will be doing random weight audits of several brackets each session. During check-in, selected wrestlers will be sent over to weight audit. Their weight needs to be with in 3% of whatever weight their parents pre-registered them at. For example, if the parent pre-registered their wrestler at 50lbs, their wrestler can weigh no more than 51.5lbs. If a wrestler is over-weight, the parent and wrestler must report to the head table immediately. The wrestler will then be removed from the tournament, and no refund will be given.

Brackets: We will be using 4-Man Brackets. Our goal is to get all wrestlers at least 3 matches.

Awards: We are placing 1st – 4th place. All wrestlers will receive a medal.

Concessions: There will be concessions on-site all day long. We will be accepting cash at the concession stand.
