You are no doubt correct about the 20 matches in a hour not being right, especially with the 12 & unders in there (1.5 minute periods) and you should not have the scratches at State that you might see in another tournament. The planning for jrob1982's proposal would need some adjustment but it is just his initial thoughts.

I'm not sure about your three year wait statement though. A few years ago I made a proposal for an additional weight class for 8 & under (88 lbs.). It was approved within a few months and implemented the very next season. I know this proposed change is way more significant, but it might not take three years to actually get approved by the State Body. I agree though with Coachjt that it would require some fast planning for any hope of any change for next year or the following year. First though like jrob1982 said maybe the poll over the next four weeks will give indication if there is enough support for this type of change.
