The date for this event is April 9th, 10th, & 11th. The cost is going to be $250.00 per kid and includes the following;

Entry fee - this is a USA event so you must have your USA card

Team Kansas singlet, t-shirt and shorts ( we will be using the same design as the Middle School except there will be no AAU symbol as this is a USA event)

Transportation to and from the event (we will meet and leave together from Cokeleys Auto Exchange in Lawrence and return there also - you will need to make arrangements to have your wrestler there and picked up as well)

Hotel for 2 nights. We will be staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Fremont, Ne. 1-402-753-3850 is the number if parents want to stay at the same hotel as the team.

We will provide water for the wrestlers and hopefully there will be enough money left for pizza one night.

It looks like we will FOR SURE have 2 teams and I would like to take a 3rd team if we can fill it. There are 16 weight per team and we can take up to 4 alternates per team. I can not guarantee any specific number of matches for the alternates. Just depends on what other teams have for extras.

We will be renting vans for transportation and I may need a couple parents to help out and drive. We will also need parents to help run the table during each dual.

We will try to put together our best team and then 2 other teams. This may be difficult as I know there are many evenly matched kids out there. No matter what team your wrestler end up on, he is going to get lots of national quality matches.

If you have already posted on the forum, I have your wrestler's info. If you have not posted on the forum, please email me at dal@matteck.com with your wrestler's weight, grade and accomplishments. I need to know by Monday March 8th. I have to let Blue Chip know how many teams so they can get the singlets, t-shirts and shorts started.

I am working on the required forms and will either post or email them to you. Checks need to be made out to Dal Eck.
