Re: Wvywa requiring coaches card

And by the way I found this on Facebook not even something official. They always try to slip changes in to their rules.

Wvywa requiring coaches card

So leave it to the WVYWA to make changes mid season to require coaches cards. This is something that should be implemented before the start of a season to allow ample time for coaches to get these. I know the wvssac card takes time and has to be scheduled for when they are offering classes. I haven’...

Re: Is this for real???

So here’s the thing if wvssac awards him the championship they just opened the door for instant replay even though rules state the officials can’t look at video. Right or wrong when the match was over he did not win. Now anytime a wrestler can show video of a missed or bad call and can dispute the ...

Re: Ref at St Albans high youth championship

I’m not for sure...<snip> He upset a lot of people especially the kids. Kinda ruined the day for some of them on what was their big day to end the league season. I think <snip> whoever is in charge of the ref should take action.

Re: Ref at St Albans high youth championship

I hope something is done he was out of control. I was right there when he made one person leave and they didn’t do anything wrong.

Galaxy open tournament

Just wanted to mention a couple things from the tournament today. I thought it was super cool how they recognized the Galaxy team before the start of the tournament. Great job recognizing the kids. It was kinda like a homecoming football game. You can really tell they are about the kids through the ...

Re: Wvywa 12 yr olds

This is my first post to this forum. I have been following for many years, but have not felt the need to comment before. In this thread, someone indicated the choice a 12 year old 7th grader made was a reflection of the child or parent's integrity. This is an offensive and judgemental statement. I ...

Re: Wvywa 12 yr olds

12 year old 7th grader weighs 69 pounds, wrestles for his middle school team against kids that weigh in 11 pounds heavier all year (2 pound allowance). Gets beat on most of the year due to size. Finally has an opportunity to wrestle at his weight and his age, told no because you got man handled all...

Re: Wvywa 12 yr olds

I have a 6th grader who is 11 and he will wrestle the middle school division at the WVYWA Championship. I have a lot of people asking why would I do that to him? Here is the reason he wrestled all season as a middle wrestler, he wrestled in opens as 11/12 and middle school divisions double bracketi...

Wvywa 12 yr olds

I have spoken to quite a few people who disagree with the change this year to make 12 year olds wrestle in the middle school division. These kids wrestle 11-12 age group all year and then are told you have to wrestle in the middle school division even if you are 12 and we have a 11-12 age group. Let...
