We encourage athletes to compete at their natural weight. Instead of specific weight classes, athletes will be grouped or pooled with others close in weight to ensure fair and competitive matches. Weight checks will be conducted on-site, and wrestlers must be within 3 lbs of their registered weight. Failure to comply will result in disqualification without a refund. A second offense will result in a season-long suspension for both the coach and the wrestler.
Registration is open now! No walk-up registration. Online registration remains open until 8 AM the morning of the tournament.
Cost: $20 per wrestler
Weight Submission: Wrestlers must submit their weight during online registration. Spot checks will be conducted at the event.
Registration Deadline: 8:00 AM, Saturday, October 5
