I can gaurantee that my kid loves the sport. Winning and losing are part of this sport and also need to be addressed. How has there been no clarification or definition for novice wrestling? I'm no expert but 2 years and under with the stipulation that if you place in an open tournament with a full 8 man bracket you novice eligibility is over. Also if you win 3 novice tournaments with 8 man brackets your novice eligibility is over. Finally if neither of those things happen at the beginning of you third year your novice eligibility is over.
