I think you could have moved him up the Sunday before Subs but not the day of. I think he can take his record up with him. My son does not cut weight either. He weighed in saturday 3.5 under. Last year at state he weighed in 3 lbs. under. But I think it serves him better to give 2 or 3 pounds than to give up a meal or snack. It will only make him stronger. It is more important to us to give him a positvie picture of what wrestling is about. I don't think we should teach them that wrestling is about starvation and dehydration. Who would voluntarily continue to participate in an activity that required you to expend tremendous amounts of energy and effort but didn't allow you to properly nourish and replenish your body? I know some kids have room to lose and reshape their bodies, and that's all good. But he doesn't have any excess to cut. He eats a well-balanced diet all year. And when he has growth spurts he eats non-stop it seems. On average he has gained 6 lbs a year since he started wrestling at 43 lbs. He now wrestles at 73lbs. You wrestle where you're at. You will learn just as much as a kid wrestling at 10u/67 as 10u/76. And that is his goal. To learn about the sport; techniques,speed, strength, strategies, sportsmanship, discipline, etc. So that someday he can be a great high school and college wrestler and still LOVE the sport. If along the way he has some success at the kids level, then that is just icing on the cake!
