Nominate Your Favorite Wrestling Mom Today!!!! - 11/23/08 08:41 PM

The Donna Woofter Memorial

"Mother of the Year"



Now that we have gotten a few tournaments under our belts, we would like to step it up even further by incorporating a special award honoring our mothers! This award will be given in honor of one very special woman, Donna Woofter. She was not only a devoted wife and mother, but a true hero to the sport of wrestling! The love and enthusiasm that she felt for this great sport was second only to her family.



Here is what we need you to do to honor your special mother. As a club, decide on who you would like to nominate (please only one entry per club). Then, send us your nomination with an explanation as to why your club feels she should be "Mother of the Year." We will determine who will get the award by the most compelling explanation sent to us. Although only one will be chosen for this special award, we want all to understand that we are honoring all mothers who love this sport as Donna did. The award will be given at the beginning of the Donna Woofter Memorial Novice Tournament held on February 8th, 2009. Nominees do not have to be from only the "novice" wrestling families, the nominees can be from "open" wrestling families as well.



Please send entries to:



Walter Woofter via his email at woofterwr@bv.com or by mail to 8615 Lamar Ave, Overland Park, KS 66207.



All entries must be received by January 20, 2009.

I agree with you. I apologize that this hasn't been updated. We received a total of five nominations, all very compelling explanations of why their nominee should be chosen, but we chose the one that most reminded us of Donna, what she stood for. The winner of the 2009 award was Paula Broadbent. Although only one mother was chosen, this award represents all the mothers that have sacrificed with the unconditional love not only during wrestling season, but year round too!

Thank you to all who participated with sending in their nominations and who attended our tournament!

I also agree with Haralson. Wrestling mom's are an awesome unique breed. They taxi kids all over the state and country, copy brackets, scream their throats sore, bring yummy snacks to the tournaments, brag about us at work, cry when we lose, and control our crazy dads when possible. . . all for a nose-bleed seat up in the rock-hard bleechers!

Without their support there would be no wrestling champions.

Hi Mom. I love you!

Eric
