I allowed overweight kids to move at Hutch this weekend. For reasons like will said, we are competing against several other tournaments and if moving 5-6 kids (which is about what it was)help get return clubs then good deal.

I do commend the clubs that contacted me about the overweight kids, they could have easily gave them a pass since it was home weigh in.

I do however think on a National level that it should be hard lined. Kids and parents know what they are up against when they sign up for those types.

The local weekend open/novice are to help develop new kids and parents along and help retain those kids as long as possbile.
