So just to make sure I’m reading it correctly, 14u 265 is the maximum weight a kid can be?

Also, when combining weight classes to make a bracket, is there a maximum difference in weights allowed? Example, to make brackets can a 200 pound kid wrestle a 265 pound kid? Or is this too large of a weight difference?

The maximum weight for 14U is 265. Unless modified, we follow NFHS rules. Under those rules you can wrestle up one weight class maximum.
