Coaches: The 2012 Middle Tennessee Wrestling Officials Association Grand Championship is scheduled for Saturday, January 21, 2011 at McGavock High School. The fee for this year’s tournament is $100.00 per team (or $15 per individual) and checks are to be made payable to: The Middle Tennessee Wrestling Officials Association or MTWOA.

 

The Grand Championship is a single day tournament that is open to all freshman level wrestlers and 12 invited middle school wrestling teams in Middle Tennessee.

Each weight class is plus two pounds for growth allowance. Weight classes may be split to limit the brackets to a maximum of 16 wrestlers per weight class. The freshman division will be a double elimination format.

 

Wrestlers not placed by pre-registration or those that do not make their assigned weight at weigh-in will be placed in the next available open bracket for that weight class. There will be no re-seeding of brackets the day of the tournament. The freshmen division is for 9th Grade wrestlers only.

I believe that would only qualify if a Freshman team wrestled. A freshman on varsity would not qualify for weight allowance.
