My impression from reading these posts is that those who oppose 6-under at the State tournament believe 6 year olds are too young, can't handle the pressure etc, etc, etc. If that is the case, why do other states have this division including Texas who actually have a younger TOTS 4-5 year old division? And probably a more interesting question would be why do MOST of the big National tournaments like Tulsa, Reno, Kick-off, Rocky Mountain Nationals series, etc offer a 6-under division???? If you think there is less pressure to win in the present method, you are dreaming. Pressure comes from parents and no matter what you do, you can't change that. If kids are mature enough to wrestle in the area tournaments every weekend, then they should be rewarded with an opportunity to qualify and wrestle in State in their own age divisions. Just because the state tournament has always been a certain way does not mean it is the best way. Change can be good especially if it is in the best interest of our kids. It would be interesting to me to know whether the 70% to 30% vote against a 6 yr old division at state by a reletively small group of "leaders" is really a true representation of the majority of members in this organization. If it is great but if this decision is being made my a small group of individuals who cast their vote based primarily on their own viewpoint and not the viewpoint of the people they represent, then the way this decision is made should be,in my opinion, changed.
