Wrestlers will compete in three two-minute periods with all National Federation folkstyle rules applicable. Red Team will be “Small School” vs. “Big School”.
Introductions: For the pre-meet introductions, each wrestler is asked to have with them a youth wrestler from their community to escort them as they go onto the mat for introductions and handshakes. This was started by the late Bob Cairns and the KWCA wishes to continue this tradition.
