Yes, Im am searching for Open Tourneys too. There are alot of people that think my son isnt novice. I still think he is but..

3 weeks practice and a tourney at age 4
3 weeks practice and a tourney at age 5
9 weeks practice and and 4 tourneys age 6
3 weeks practice and a tourney at age 7

7 Tourneys and about a .350 win %

His birthdate is sept 14th 2002 he is still 6 and under at the age of 7.

Its just hard to believe that 3 weeks of practice and a tourney equals 3 months of practice and 14 tourneys.(like some kids actually wrestle) I guess it still counts as a year expierence.

It is one of those things. If you win a novice tournement someone will always assume your not a novice. Just email the Contact and get things strait before you travel.
