Wasatch Tournament Info

Wasatch Youth & Jr. High Open

Saturday, January 9th 2010

Wasatch High School

We will be running two separate tournaments back to back.  Morning:  5th-Jr. High, Afternoon: Elementary Pre K- 4th grade.  The purpose of these tournaments is to give each wrestler quality matches where they are not sitting in the gym all day waiting to wrestle.  ALL WRESTLERS WILL RECEIVE A MEDAL.  No League card required but recommended.

Cost:               $10

Format: Four man round-robin based on age and weight. All wrestlers in the 4 man bracket will wrestle each other and get 3 matches.  All Wrestlers will receive a medal.

Procedure: The wrestlers’ brackets are called to the staging area then sent to a mat.  The entire bracket is wrestled and wrestlers will immediately pick up medals.  Since 3-4 other brackets will be on the same mat, the wrestlers will have sufficient rest time.

Wrestlers will be divided by:

Grade:  Will try to keep grades together, but will only move one grade if needed.

Exception: Jr. High:  7th grader could wrestle a 9th grader

Weight: The wrestlers do not need to make a specific weight.

The wrestler will be put into a group of four wrestlers that weigh approximately the same weight.  (not to exceed 5 lbs. difference in smaller wrestlers & 10 lbs in larger wrestlers) Exception:  Parent/Coach approval

Ability:   When possible we will try and separate the advanced and the beginner wrestler.  Coaches need to determine the ability/skill of their wrestler on a scale of 1-5 (1 being a low skill/ability wrestler and 5 being a high skill/ability wrestler).

Another Busy Week Ahead

First I want to say congratulations to our team. As was expected, we were able to win both trophies at the Salt Lake Slam. This is a national level tournament and we were, as a club able to win both of the older division championship trophies.

Another busy week for everyone.

Monday, Regular practice for Jr. High and Club. During club portion on Monday and Tuesday we will have the more experienced Spanish Fork wrestlers in our room with us to help us get ready for the Delta Duals.

Tuesday, same as Monday. Regular practice times.

Wednesday: Regular early start, but ending practice early. Practice will end at 4:30 PM to get ready for wrestle till you drop for the younger kids.

Wednesday night I will need 7-9 grade officials to officiate kids matches. I will need five officials that night from 5:00 till 9:00. They will be paid.

Thursday is a short practice again due to the high school dual meets. Maple Mountain is wrestling Springville at Springville. 5:00 JV and 7:00 Varsity. I would like everyone to be there if possible. You must wear your team t-shirt that night to get in for free.

Friday. Coach Killian and I will both be at the high school tournament on Friday. We will have practice on Friday for sure. It will be for those wrestlers who are traveling to Delta this week. They will be in charge of moving mats to the stage after practice, and they will need to make weight. A Coach (whomever runs practice that night) will need to weigh in each wrestler during Friday’s practice.

The tournament on Saturday at Delta is for those that make the varsity and JV teams. I will be willing to take some extra kids in case of injury, or in case there are extra spots on other teams.

Spanish Fork will be filling in some of our weights and we will be filling in some of their weights so we can collectively take more guys.

If you are in 6th grade and below, I suggest you wrestle at Spanish Fork this weekend. register on trackwrestling.com like every other week. $10.00. You will put in your own honest weight. No weigh ins at Spanish Fork.

The Delta meet is also $10.00 per boy. If you make the travel team, you need to bring $10.00 to coach LaMont.

Car pool will meet at 5:50 AM on Saturday for Delta. Leaving the lot at 6:00 AM.

This Week’s Wrestling Schedule

Dear team,

Tons of information that needs to be read and understood.  Lots of details.

Self Stats Sheet – Click Here to Download -  Please print off 10 or so of these and send them with your wrestlers to every competition.  They should fill them out and turn them in to a manager or coach after each match.

It is time now after six weeks on the team that we submit our goals. I would like each wrestler to submit two goals for the season. We have two months left in the season. I want the two goals to be specific and have an explanation of how they will achieve the goals. 3.5X5 index cards are best.

Registration for Salt Lake Slam ends early. Registration ends on Thursday at noon. This is not a tournament to wait on. A $25.00 late fee for onsite registration. To get into the regular tournament you will need a national card. If you are in the true beginner or the 9th grade category, you only need the state league card.

This week’s schedule is complex. Normal practice tonight. We will move one mat after practice.

Tuesday no practice. We are MOVING the wrestle till you drop for Jr. High to Spanish Fork Jr. HIgh. Maple Mountain High has a basketball game and wanted us to move this. There are six schools coming. Not lost the last two. Lots of matches. Remember that this is for 7th – 9th Jr. High only on Tuesday

Regular practice Wednesday and Thursday.

No practice on Friday. Car pools leave Memorial Hall at 5:PM for weigh ins.

Saturday AM car pool leaves at 7:AM from Memorial Hall. The more drivers the better. Remember that Saturday is a club tournament for all ages.

We want our club to work two tables at the tournament. I will pay people to do this. I need 12 volunteers (kind of a volunteer). I have $500.00 to pay out between these 12 people depending on what you do. If you are not going due to financial reasons, please sign up with me ASAP. If you want to volunteer without getting paid, all the better. Let me know.
