I have a wrestler that is 8 and under that weighs 130 lbs. Now when we go to local events they have a 110, 120(maybe) and then a HWT division. Now I am finding out that at sub-district he has to be at 125 lbs or is unable to compete. With all the articles about cutting weight and the such the state of Kansas has dertermined that after paying dues and entry fees and the such that if he doesn't get to 125 that we go home and are unable to compete in the qualifiers or state.

I find this a bit disturbing, promote promote wrestling and then they send kids home. He will probably be able to make 125 but it is a bit disturbing that they will send kids home that don't fit their criteria.

If there are others out there with this problem please respond. Or is this a unique situation.

It's just tuff wrestling all season and then not being able to compete at the top level at the end of the year.
