Arrival: Parking available in the back parking lot and enter through door 16. Doors open at 7:45am

Membership: All participants to register/participate must have a current/annual 2025-26 USAW Athlete membership. For wrestlers registering for the Beginner division (only), this division allows participants without annual USAW memberships a “Take-A-Shot” 1 Day membership for $10. See information available on the Membership tab on how to purchase.

Format: Scratch weight. 4-man round-robin brackets when possible.

Weigh-Ins: 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 bracket each session. During check-in, selected wrestlers will be sent over to weight audit. Their weight needs to be within 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.

Check-In Process: Please check your wrestler in when they arrive at the event. You do not need to wait until their check in time.

Registration Cost: $20 Entry Fee (wrestlers) and all registration will be done online via pre-registration process only. Pre-registration is mandatory through USA Bracketing (link below).
