You all knew the rules going in to the season.
If you don't like it either quit wrestling, or change the rule.
In "reality" that is all you can do.
There is no rule that says you can only practice 3 days a week and nothing says you have to practice with your club only.
If your concerned about quality practice time go find it, or create it.
It's always been a "reality" to me that "you only take out of an endevor what you put into that endevor"....
How does an 8th grader create a 5 day a week practice schedule against juniors and seniors in high school? How can an 8th grader enter tournaments and wrestle against high school juniors and seniors from December thru February?
I think most Kansas wrestling people understand and believe that the majority of Kansas 8th graders are not going to experience the quality of practice and competition during the year that the majority of the Kansas 9th graders will experience. The supporters even though they realize it do not think it is enough of an issue to change the Kansas Kids State tournament system.
