Yes the tournament has been postponed until Jan. 16th and 17th Due to low numbers. It was hard for us to come to this decision, however, we believe that this date will better serve Kansas and those that were planning to attend as well as draw in more competition. Below is a copy of the letter that was sent out to all those that had registered with the tournament:

Hello,
First off I want to thank everyone for their entries and their support for Kansas Sprawl Nationals. Unfortunately, Due to an unforeseen Wrestling clinic that is being held the same weekend in Oklahoma a lot of our Oklahoma clubs and kids that were planning on attending and supporting us have decided to attend this clinic in Oklahoma, their 2000 wrestler participants were reached. Obviously we were not expecting to lose these numbers and it hurt our registration total.

Our total registration was about 450 wrestlers. We were expecting about twice these numbers. However, some of the kids that have entered are definantly some of the most elite wrestlers around. With us spending over $8,000 on awards alone and the ability to be one of the best tournaments around we DO NOT want to cancel this tournament. We would like to see all the brackets full though.

With that, we will be pushing this tournament back to Jan 16-17, 2010. This will allow us to get our registration up and provide you with one of the most stacked tournaments around. So we need to know how you want us to handle your entries? If this date is fine with you and you still want to keep your entry in just let us know and we will keep everything as it is and keep you entered.

If you have already sent payment to us and are still wanting to stay in that is fine we will just mark you down as paid. Obviously we would like to keep all the entries we already have if possible and keep the competition growing. However, I know there may be reasons that this new date just does not work out for you. If that is the case please let us know and if you have to pull out and have already paid we will return your entry fees.

Thanks
