These are the most important two weeks of folkstyle season.  Please notice there are CHANGES to the schedule.

State and superstate are coming up the next two weeks.  These both require a USA membership.  They both require pre-registration on www.trackwrestling.com.  They both require registration before Tuesday of each respective tournament in order to have their names listed on the tournament T-shirt.  They are both TEAM SCORING tournaments that we have a tradition of winning.  Numbers make a difference so we want everyone to register (under Champions Wrestling Club).

State tournament for 4-6th (middle school) is this Friday.  7-9th (Jr. High) is on Saturday.  Both at Alta High.  Weigh ins will be at Mapleton Jr. High on Thursday after practice.  No competition this weekend for PreK-3rd.  4-6th graders can wrestle in the Jr. High tournament but if they do they cannot compete in the middle school event.  Its one or the other but not both.   Register under Champions Wrestling Club.

The Super State tournament is coming up the following week.  This will be held at the Salt Palace.

Practice schedule for this week.  Practice on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week.  No practice on Friday.

Thursday the 26th:  Registration ends for state.

Thursday the 26th:  Wrestle till you drop for PreK-6th grade on Thursday at MJH.  Start time at 6:00 PM.  Notice this is a change in the schedule!  3-6th graders can choose to practice and compete that night or choose one or the other.

Wednesday the 25th:  Springville will host MMHS on Wednesday of this week at 7:00.  Wrestlers should wear their T-shirts and cheer for one or the other team depending on their boundary.  This is the last region dual for both of these teams and Senior night for the Red Devils.

Monday:  No practice.  Holiday.

Tuesday:  Registration deadline for this weekend’s Beehive Brawl tournament in Richfield UT.  Register online at www.beehivebrawl.com and make sure you register under Champions Wrestling Club.  For Flyer click here.  $25.00 registration this weekend due to awards and real HS varsity officials.   A fun tournament that we have won for ten straight years.  Numbers mean a lot to win a team trophy at this event.

Tuesday: 7-9 grade Nebo Jr. High District Finals and official end of Jr. High season event.  This event is hosted at Diamond Fork Jr. High.  There will be pre-set weights and team scoring.  This event determines the district championship, which Mapleton Jr. High has never lost.  It is IMPORTANT that ALL Jr. High wrestlers attend this event for the good of the team.  Sometimes even wrestlers who have not had a lot of success can earn team placement points at this event (even if you are sick).  Also, you must have your grades at 2.0 or better and no more than one F to compete.   No practice for the 4-9th graders.  Weigh ins start at 4:15.  Wrestling will start at 5:00.  These are the weights: 80, 86, 92, 98, 104, 110, 116, 122, 128, 134, 140, 150, 165, 180, 210, 210+  No cost.

Tuesday: PreK-3rd grade practice is normal EXCEPT the PreK will practice at Mapleton Jr. High due to the fact that the club mats will be being used at the district Jr. High event.  So Memorial Hall will not be open Tuesday for PreK.  Meet at normal time and share the room with the 1st and second graders.

Wednesday:  Wrestle till you drop for 4-9 graders at Mapleton Jr. High for Sprinville, Spanish Fork and Mt. View at Mapleton Jr. High.  4:45 warm up, 5:30 start time.

Wednesday:  Wrestle till you drop for PreK-3rd graders at Spanish Fork High School.  $1.00 entry fee.  6:00 check in 6:20 start wrestling.

Wednesday:  Welcome all Springville and Diamond Fork Jr. High Wrestlers into the club practices since the district events are over.

Thursday regular practice for 3-9th graders at regular times.

Thursday:  Senior night at Maple Mountain High School vs Provo at 7:00.  Last home dual for the Golden Eagles.  With T-shirt four club wrestlers get in free with one paying adult.

Friday No practice.  Weigh in at Richfield from 3:00 to 7:00 PM.  No local weigh in available.

Saturday Beehive Brawl in Richfield.

PreK-3rd grade additional events in future weeks:  February 1st and February 8th both at Salem Hills HS check in at 6:00 wrestle at 6:20.  $1.00 entry.

Weigh ins for Syracuse and Cedar City Tournaments will both be today or tomorrow during practice.  This is for all ages PreK-9th.  Those PreK wrestlers who weighed in on Tuesday do not have to weigh in again.  Times go from 3-5:15 today or 7:30-9:30 AM tomorrow.

It has been at least two years since our club has ordered warm ups.  This year we have chosen quality over price and have a very nice top and bottom match set that will compliment colors from our past warm up hoodies or pants.  Both the jacket and pants are made out of brushed tricot polyester.  The jacket zips all the way down and has a hood.  The jacket is a light grey color with a thin charcoal stripe across the chest and down the arms.   We will have our Champions logo embroidered (blue and yellow) on the back of the jacket and then put the name of the wrestler on the front of the jacket.  The pants we will embroider “Champions Wrestling or CW” on them.  The pants will be a solid charcoal color.  We will have have some demo suits to try on TODAY during practice if you want to check for sizing.  They will cost around $100 for the set,  give or take a little.  The warm ups will be sold at price.  I won’t know the for sure cost until I see how many people want to order.  Parents may order as well.  To place your order either talk directly to Diane LaMont or email her at  dianelamont1@yahoo.com.  The order is due This MONDAY the 16th at noon.

I didn’t realize we didn’t have school on Friday.  So practice is optional instead of mandatory for 3-9th grade and will be at MJH at 7:30 AM until 9:30 AM on Friday.

Also the Cedar City Duals are at Cedar City High School on Saturday.  Please give your money to coach VanTassel on Friday or Saturday.  $10.00 Cash.

For those wanting to go down on Friday night and stay, we have discount rooms at the Quality Inn Cedar City  for $50.00 (435-586-2082) and America’s Best Value Inn $42.00 (435-867-4700).   Mention the Red Hill Invitational Deuls.  Remember this is for 4th-9th graders.  All PreK-3rd graders should be going to Syracuse on Saturday.

One last reminder that we have multi-club games at 6:00 at the UCCU center and free entry into the UVU/Boise St match at 7:00 with a club T-shirt on.
