Ok! I will shake the worms right out of the can! Not about moving up in age, but this whole topic of novice guidelines!
I know of a boy that has been wrestling for 4 years that still wrestles at novice tournaments. :rolleyes: (I wonder if anyone else has noticed?) He gets pinned at novice tournaments.

Probably always will. He wrestles at open tournaments and gets pinned. Should he be banned from novice tournaments? Who cares? He's involved in the sport. Who's to say what's right? Not me.
