First question I have is why do we even have sub-district. Is it to help support freestyle? If so what is the percentage of the kids at subs that freestyle in the summer? Another point, why not give them the chance to go to one more tournament and then have one big district? If district were a 2 day event then some of the jitters and shell shock of a 2 day tournament and hype would be minimized for the ones that do advance to state. I see alot of kids that are great one day wrestlers, put them in a two day tournament and the challenge of getting mentally ready 2 days in a row just drains them. Would it help our youth by giving them the challange and magnitude of 2 2 day tournaments not just one in our own home state to help them grow. Are we giving our youth a false sense that you only have to go hard one day a week? We as parents have to go hard everyday and the values that wrestling gives to the kids is "never give up and enjoy what you are doing". Do they understand that this has to happen everyday when they are on their own, not just once a week. It is all mental now for them and it will be mental for them when they become young adults. Do we worry about "no child left behind" to much and forget about "no child held back"?
