sbfraz 8 Report post Posted March 11, 2013 We would be willing to host a weigh in at Taylor County High on 3/28 at 6pm. Please let me know if that's possible. Also, will weight/skin checks be conducted at check in or mat side? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sbfraz 8 Report post Posted March 11, 2013 We would also love to see this in track. It could make registering much easier, allow others to follow and give our kids a chance to improve their track rank for the purpose of better seeding at national events.

Chris Duke 284 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 If a kid has had a birthday and his weight has changed will he have to wrestle in a new bracket or will he stay in the 1 he was in at State?

bowlbear1 1 Report post Posted March 12, 2013 I have a kid who won youth state and is a sixth grader but was born in 2000. I seen the birth dates was 2001-2002 for sixth graders. Is he not eligible? He is 12. I believe the information says if they are 12 but you are right about the divisions saying 2001-2002 on the flyer. I'm sure there will be several kids that will fall into this catagory being as if they are 12 now but may turn 13 in the next several months. I guess they will need to clarify if it is by the age of 12 or by the birth year. Lets hope we get an answer soon because again this event is fast approaching.

USA Wrestling divisions and weight classes will be used. Are you already changing this? This is what I found on USA Wrestling. INTERMEDIATE Born 2003-2004 and KY TOC has this Intermediate 2002-2004. Bantam has a three year gap. This is crazy to have this big of a gap with the little kids. They are the ones that have the biggest disadvantage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is crazy to have this big of a gap with the little kids. They are the ones that have the biggest disadvantage. The flier has the correct age divisions on it. I would agree though that the grade column should be removed. USA divisions have nothing to do with grade. It will only cause confusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
