FAQ’S

Novice- means that participants must be in their (1st) first or (2nd) second year of wrestling. Once a wrestler has competed in Novice tournaments for (2) two seasons, they are no longer eligible to compete in novice tournaments.

This allows for kids to be matched up properly with competition with similar experience.

We rely on our parents and coaches to USE GOOD JUDGEMENT WHEN ENTERING WRESTLERS INTO our NOVICE TOURNAMENT.

iF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING NOVICE criteria, PLEASE REACH OUT TO TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR.

“in order to grow the sport of wrestling, we need to replace the current mindset of short-term performance with long-term development.” -Ben Askren
