VanFam7 - Your profile says your in the sek club from Chanute. Which from what I understand, the two clubs don't get along at all. Here in Iola, we are just getting started with our club.

Yes, I am from SEK club. But that doesn't have anything to do with my opinion about this issue. If my club would have had this tournament I would still say, TOO MANY. I have over 80 posts on this forum. If you look around on all the forums you will find numerous threads on this very issue, congested gyms, overbooked tournamtents, need a split format, etc.,etc.

This is not an issue to be taken personally or to offend anyone. It just stating the obvious. If our club didn't get there entries in on time then, so be it. We should not have been allowed to enter. I don't have a problem with that. My son's world is not so small that it revolves around whether he wrestles every weekend.

I don't know where you got your information about the two clubs but it wasn't from me. I "get along" with all the other club members. We have had Chanute wrestlers come to our practices to work out and vice versa. I enjoy watching their wrstlers compete. Many iof them are friends with my kids. I like that there are two clubs in Chanute. I think it makes both clubs better. It gives people choices. Wrestling is very popular in Chanute. If you put the two clubs together there would not be a facility big enough to hold a whole team practice.
We have been involved in wrestling for only 4 years and have had the opportunity to meet lots of great new friends.

Again I will say, we enjoyed the competition and felt it was well ran. This is a forum to share opinions so that's what I did. I was not trying to attack your club. If the situation was reversed I would want you to tell me your opinions truthfully. I don't think we grow or learn when people only tell us what they think we want to her.
