Kansas is divided geographically into four (4) districts. Each District is further divided into either a North / South or East / West to create the Sub-districts. The Sub-district tournament is open to all member wrestlers participating with a USAW Kansas chartered club within the boundaries of the appropriate Sub-district. Bracket size at the Sub-district is only limited by the number of entries and the top four (4) place winners advance to the District Tournament. The top four (4) place winners at the District Tournament then advance to the USAW Kansas Kids State Championship Tournament.
