Chris Duke 284 Report post Posted November 7, 2013 What are the rules for a youth wrestle to participate at Youth State? He has a USA Card and lives in Kentucky. He is not on a team, will that matter as long as he is at Regionals? Will he be able to wrestle unattached? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keepyourheadup 10 Report post Posted November 8, 2013 They group them in 2 year increments. No one will wrestle anyone that is %10 higher or lower then their wieght . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Duke 284 Report post Posted November 9, 2013 I guess this question is directed more towards Ranger, MLee, or one of the board members. I appreciate the input I just need to make sure he doesn't have to be on a team in Kentucky. This is just for youth not middle school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.W. 21 Report post Posted November 10, 2013 I am one of the youth committee members - Jory Whorton. He has to be is a USA Card holder. He technically would not have to be on a team, but the coach will have to have a USA Coaches Card to be on the floor since each team has to have one USA Coach, without a team, the coach would have to meet that requirement. shoot me an email at jory.whorton@gmail.com if you have any more specific detailed questions.

J.W. 21 Report post Posted November 10, 2013 Chris - Just curious, is there not a team in the area? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Duke 284 Report post Posted November 10, 2013 Plenty of teams, its about convenience. I have placed both my boys on the Golden Cross Elementary Gold Team. Its hard to pass up a room full of Ohio state qualifiers and placers. My boys look forward to the end of year party at the horse park. Its not about the tournament its about the experience for my boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ranger123 43 Report post Posted November 12, 2013 Only thing I will add is that the kid needs to be entered at the regional event to be eligible for state. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
