I have had several calls and emails asking about whether we were going to be giving the 0.9 of a pound at weigh-in again this year. We will once again be giving the .9 of a pound weight allowance. So if your wrestler is in the 52 lb. weight class, as long as he weighs in at 52.9 lbs. he has made weight.

I also want to point out another piece of information on the flyer. I am requesting that you send in the names two people responsible for picking up the coaches packet. In the past couple of years we have had increasing incidents of a person from a club picking up the coaches packet when that responsibility should have been left to someone else. While this should be a club issue, there has been a greater frequency of the coach, club leader, etc. taking their frustrations out on the lady/ladies distributing the coaches packet. Hopefully this will alleviate those problems. Thanks.
