I was just wondering how girls state is going to work this year with the new rule change. Who is going to host girls state? If there is going to be a girls state when will it be? Thanks for your help on this matter.

I haven't checked the forum in quite a while. I'm wondering which new rule change you might be talking about. McPherson is still planning on hosting the girls state tournaments. The USGWA is through a differant orginazition than USAW. The USAW tournament held in March has always had the money going through the corporate headquarters. The USGWA will be February 25th, the USAW will be March 25th.

Just curious since it is USGWA it can still have the word "state" in the title of the tournament without the money going through the cooporate headquarters?

Lance, Thanks for getting back on this issue. I was unsure of the word "state" being used in the tournaments was going to be a problem. Thanks for putting on the tournaments. The ladies on our team have had a great time at the tournaments the last couple of years. The ladies on the team were asking and ready to come to McPherson again. Lance can you please check your dates. February and March 25 are Mondays. I am sure you meant Sunday February and March 24. Thanks again Lance

You are right, not sure what calander I was looking at. It should be February 24th, and March 24th.

Thanks!

It is a great tournament. Email and phone contact information for USGWA tournament series director can be found on the flyer and entry blank.

The link above says there is an admission fee for spectators, the flier I have in hand does not mention one. Just for clarification, entrance fee or not? Thanks!

Will they still hold the tourney this weekend with the weather.

Kent Bailo always recommends the host to charge an admission fee because he keeps the entry fees and its a way for the host to make some money. The MAC Wrestling Club isn't interested in making money, they want to provide an opportunity for the girls. We have always waived the admission fee for spectators. If you wish to help out our club by patronizing the concessions we appreciate that. We plan on still holding the tournament, we hope the weather turns and we can all enjoy an awesome weekend. Look forward to seeing all of you there!!
