Why not eliminate pre-registration? That way you sign up at the event, weigh-in and 2 hours later you start wrestling? Seems with Trackwrestling over the last few months that is that has been happening anyway with the problems of scratching before a tournament. End registration and weigh-ins at 8:00 am and plug all the names into the system with random draw and be ready to wrestle by 10:00. Sounds like an easy fix to me.
You still have to have some type of pre-registration in order for the host to know how many officials to hire, mats needed or if they even have enough entries to have a tournament. I have given this some thought the past few months and the way I think it will evolve is each club will send in a request for the host to hold so many entries at each age group along with a check. Then the morning of the tournament the names and weights of those entries will be loaded into the system following weigh-in just like you propose.
