A wrestler can move up one age group with the permission of the tournament director, provided this request is made before bracketing is completed. A wrestler can only compete in one bracket for each session, either the morning or afternoon session. The only division that can wrestle in both morning and afternoon is the Intermediate division, because the wrestler can wrestle in the morning session as an Intermediate and move up one division to Novice for the afternoon session. The coach requesting the division change must show their current Wrestling Leader card. Therefore, this request cannot be made by anyone without a Wrestling Leader card.
Check – INS:
Each Club’s director or designated person for that Club will check in with the Tournament Director, inform the Director of any known NO SHOW wrestlers. Note: There are no refunds for no shows – each club is responsible for FULL payment.
All wrestlers and ONLY wrestlers must check in by the end of the skin check in time period to verify they do not have any contagious skin conditions. Wrestlers will not be admitted into the tournament if they are not checked in on time or completed proper skin condition form if needed.

It is the responsibility of the Club Directors or the designated person for that club to check with the head person running the Skin check in area to see if any of their wrestlers have not check in by 8:15 am for the morning session and 11:45 for the afternoon session.
