Wasatch Youth & Jr. High Open

Saturday, January 9^th 2010

Wasatch High School

We will be running two separate tournaments back to back.  Morning:  5^th-Jr. High, Afternoon: Elementary Pre K- 4^th grade.  The purpose of these tournaments is to give each wrestler quality matches where they are not sitting in the gym all day waiting to wrestle.  ALL WRESTLERS WILL RECEIVE A MEDAL.  No League card required but recommended.

Cost:               $10

Format: Four man round-robin based on age and weight. All wrestlers in the 4 man bracket will wrestle each other and get 3 matches.  All Wrestlers will receive a medal.

Procedure: The wrestlers’ brackets are called to the staging area then sent to a mat.  The entire bracket is wrestled and wrestlers will immediately pick up medals.  Since 3-4 other brackets will be on the same mat, the wrestlers will have sufficient rest time.

Wrestlers will be divided by:

Grade:  Will try to keep grades together, but will only move one grade if needed.

Exception: Jr. High:  7^th grader could wrestle a 9^th grader

Weight: The wrestlers do not need to make a specific weight.

The wrestler will be put into a group of four wrestlers that weigh approximately the same weight.  (not to exceed 5 lbs. difference in smaller wrestlers & 10 lbs in larger wrestlers) Exception:  Parent/Coach approval

Ability:   When possible we will try and separate the advanced and the beginner wrestler.  Coaches need to determine the ability/skill of their wrestler on a scale of 1-5 (1 being a low skill/ability wrestler and 5 being a high skill/ability wrestler).

WOW, is all I can say. I am so proud of the boys, every one of them! This weekend was great. It is not just that we DOMINATED as a team, it was that every wrestler improved and proved that they are paying attention in practice. We had 14 boys go undefeated and we more than doubled our score on every other team. Even our JV team won matches and came down to the last match against experienced varsity wrestlers.

Also so blessed that we all got home safe.

This week’s schedule:

Regular practice today. Moving mats at the end of practice. We will have a mat moved to the Jr. High right after practice. This will be just the one small red mat. The larger mat will stay. I will need one trailer and lots of hands.

Tomorrow: All boys will be excused from school early. This is Jr. High boys that attend the Jr. High schools in Nebo District. I will excuse you from Springville and Mapleton Jr. High at 1:30. You need to be dressed and ready for warm up at 2:00 in the main gym of Mapleton JH. Wrestling starts at 3:15. Regular line brackets, double elimination tournament with the following weights:

75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 145, 160, 195, Hvy

Wrestling will be done when it is done. Hopefully by 6:30 or so.

Remember grade school kids, club kids, kids not in Nebo district are not able to compete at this one. No cost. Weigh ins will be tonight.

I would like to invite any parents and 5/6th graders to help on tables and officiating if possible. Please let me know.
