YELLOW JACKET QUALIFIER

JANUARY 15, 2011



Dear Coach,


The following information concerns the Yellow Jacket Qualifier at Fort Mill HS.


The tournament will be held on Saturday, January 15th. The format will be double elimination out of a sixteen man bracket. All teams now have the two pound growth allowance. The weight classes for the event are:


Middle School- 82,87,92,97,102,107,112,117,122,127,134,142,152,162,172,187,287

Please submit rosters by weight class (lowest to highest). This list will be used to weigh in your team, and will greatly speed up the weigh in process.


Email your roster with win/loss records on Wednesday, January 12th by 7:00 PM. The event will be capped at 450 wrestlers. No submissions will be accepted beyond that point. Include a phone number with your roster. Be sure to specify on a separate list, the following information… name, division (MS or JV), and weight class. Middle school is 7th and 8th grade; JV is 9th and 10th grade.

The information that you submit is final. If a wrestler is listed in the wrong division or weight class, or doesn’t make weight he will not wrestle.

Keep in mind that a varsity wrestler is only allowed 16 dates. There should be no varsity level wrestlers competing in the qualifying tournaments regardless of grade.


Email scratches on Thursday and Friday. Saturday morning scratches should be called in at 803-487-0187 or 803-548-8239.

First round bout sheets will be drawn Friday night.

It is critical that you update scratches in order to prevent delays on Saturday.
