I would like to say to start with there does need to be changes to the weights because we have kids winning state that never even wrestle. There are so many classes when you get the team books which show every bracket you will notice every year there are multiple brackets with only one kid in the bracket, and I don't think this is fair to all the other kids like my son who have to bust their hump to place at state. I don't agree with removing an age group to add another we need to find a way to incorperate all the kids. I don't know what the answer is on how to do this, but I think it's wrong to lead a movement to remove kids who have been putting in their time through out the years in the Kansas Kids Clubs. One more thing the idea of wrestling by grade is a joke they do it in Nebraska and it is a serious joke. Nebraska goes by their own rules because multiple people wanted a new system which made the parents of the state all happy like what is being sugested on this page, but remember to make everyone happy cost the kids in Nebraska at tournemants across the country. Their kids have to change they way they have wrestled all year, and I know this first hand because I live on the line by Nebraska.
