i will have to say that it was way crowded. there was some good wrestling. i took my older son because my younger son was wrestling on sunday anyways. i think they took extra entries not to be greedy but so those kids would have a chance to wrestle and not be turned away. not sure how many over 700 they had but if someone calls you and says hey we would like to sign up or my kid would have to sit out would you really want to turn away a kid or give him a chance. i do not know the circumstances but i wouldnt turn a kid away either. i would look for a different place to have it if its that over crowded in the future. not sure where would be a better place in ottawa but if its like that year after year something has to change.
