Well ran tourney for the number of kids. Thanks for the local event!! Saw many great matches!!

As a relatively newcomer to kids wrestling (about 5 years) and one who is very comfortable with computers, I would like to list a few items:

1. Track wrestling is a great addition - a needed option.
2. I love satellite weigh-ins & Friday weigh-ins
3. Its programing as a data base is dated.
4. It is not the end all be all.
5. I enjoy reviewing the results as well as anyone.
6. I can call someone if I want the results.
7. I can show up and watch some matches --- I saw some serious banging going on in Maize. For example: In 10 64lbs, placers in Maize did not place in TOC (i believe). Tells you how tough that bracket was!!!
8. Only 48 hours without rest?? Sounds like Bryce had it easy!!!!
9. All clubs are getting their resources stretched to put on a tournament..YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVE NO IDEA!!. These are not "paid productions". Goal - kids entered, kids wrestled, good matches, on time, no injuries..enough said.
10. Next complaint about track wrestling - offer to step up and pay for the track fee, rent computers, printers, pay for ink, copiers, training on running the program or pay for someone to run it, etc.... Enough already!!
11. I suggest you thank each club, each week that puts on a tournament. It has gotten MUCH MORE DIFFICULT in the last few years with getting facilities, paying facility fees, working with the school and their insane scheduling system. You obviously have no idea how much time & energy it takes a club. Be careful, it may soon be easier to charge an extra $30-$50 for each club member and NO TOURNAMENT.

Done with my rant....

See you all in Hutch & Derby novice next week - both are well ran tournaments.
