What about middle school and high school tournaments and wrestlers, of which this tournament would be targeting? I would also like to see someone answer some of the points that bking brings up, because those numbers are way below the total number of middle school and high school wrestlers who partcipate in Kansas. Does the when in Rome thing still apply then? :rolleyes: I would say that I agree with sportsfan premise regarding kids tournaments, but don't think I would regarding the schools. Truth is there is a lot of non USA Wrestling in Kansas. Do you provide opportunities for the school aged wrestlers that benefits the many or the few? I just think that the same logic here could also be used for the New Years Bash at Hays, neither is it a USA tournament but it is providing opportunity to USA Wrestlers, and many others. I see that as a good thing, especially if it can find ways to promote USA Wrestling.
