Just an FYI- the Barberton “Battle for the Belt” Youth Open will take place on Saturday, December 14th! Champions of the Youth Open Divisions 12 and under will received a deluxe championship belt. Accept no substitute- this is truly a first class award!
Last year this event exploded to 755 wrestlers (from about 550 in previous years). To accommodate the growing turnout, we will be expanding from one to two gymnasiums and adding two additional mats. Between the two gymnasiums, we will have ten mats running all day. We have also built in a bit more time between the three sessions. With these improvements- we will be able to start on time and run quickly!
Coaches- this tournament is truly for your entire team. Along with the always-competitive “Open” Youth Division (trophies to the top three), there is a Rookie Division in which only 1st and 2nd year wrestlers may compete. This division gives newcomers to our sport a chance to succeed against other beginners. There is also a 13-15 Division (high school wrestlers may not compete).
