At the beginning of this year I was totally for 6U being added to the mix. Now people are talking about cutting 16U to add room for 6U. I will not even entertain that idea. How will you feel in 9 years when your little one is wrestling 16U. Let's not cut off our nose to spite our face. Do you people really think that the parents will end the season early if their little one is burning out? Not a chance, they will push them to "finish what they started". I know, I've been there. Yes, I thought 6U should get their shot, but now I'm not so sure. I would have to disagree that they are the future of wrestling. Without the 14U and 16U the High School teams will die. Without High School teams, there will be no need for 6U. 6U is fun to watch, but most have no idea what they are doing. I'm sure there is an answer in the middle ground. Too many answers are falling too far on both sides of the spectrum. Until we get a reasonable solution I will be happy taking our little ones to Ottawa.
