I disagree with getting rid of the novice part. It was nice to have our open and novice kids at the same venue. I do like the idea of Wellington having theirs on Sunday, for the "2 days of wrstling" for novice kids option.

Last year with the 14u on Friday, it was much less congested. It is not the Derby club's fault that the friday option was taken away from it. They did the best they could under the circumstances.

Bishop Carrol HS tourney wasn't over until 11:00, and it was only a 224 kid tourney. I'm not complaining about that either. Good competition is always worth some small inconveniences.
