Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion Kids Folkstyle Sprawl Nationals

Hello,
I would like to start off by clearing up some things and addressing the RUMOR that Park City Kansas SPRAWL Nationals is canceled. This is absolutely not the truth and this tournament is still very much on and going to happen. There have been many emails and phone calls from parents and clubs requesting that we re-consider making this two day tournament into a one day tournament. We discussed it and agree that times are tough right now and we want to make this as easy as possible for everyone. We want to allow any parent who wants their kid to wrestle in the tournament to have that opportunity. With that being said with our facility and manpower from all the great clubs showing their support we are able to make this happen and make this a one day event.

Weigh-ins will still be Friday night and Saturday morning with wrestling starting and finishing up on Saturday. With some individuals and clubs being on the fence until we made this decision we will be extending the entry deadline to Tuesday Jan 12. If you have any questions don't hesitate to call or e-mail.

Thanks,

316 Productions Staff

Will you email or post an updated flyer reflecting the changes?
This will help some of the clubs to get the information out.

great deal, in it for the kids/ competition.

Sould of made it a one day tournament on sunday so it would not conflict with as many other kansas local tournaments. There are only a couple on sunday. Just my two cents.

There was obviously an option to wrestle either Saturday or Sunday. Why was the decision made to wrestle Saturday? If this is really for the kids and the clubs, then the tournament should be scheduled for SUNDAY!!!! What's the real goal here?

Wow...a guy with 8 posts, been registered for 7 whole days and you have all the answers....Kansas wrestling is saved.

nice

Is the start time still 9 AM and when will the entries be posted?

so if sprawl nationals is still going on why are there 40 derby kids signed up for winfield?

Cause thats where the real competition is!!!
Its sad when your own club won't even support a tournament that you are putting on!

I would ike to just be able to double check my entries. According to trackwrestling I have 13 going but I know I only sent in 9. I sure hope I dont get charged for those other 4....

I'd like to know what the entries are also. It shows Goddard sending 26 wrestlers when in fact no one from our club is going to Sprawls. We have chosen to support Winfield.

Is this an attempt to give everyone an impression that more clubs are going to Sprawls to increase their entries?

I've noticed that the kids Pratt signed up still show up as attending Sprawl even though they are not. I've also noticed that when I look at these particular wrestlers on TW it shows that this particular tournament is on the 17th, not the 16th.

The entries show Boos' School has 4 kids going but there are only 2 kids going from our club.

Disregard what is on Trackwrestling. We are not using Trackwrestling this year. Those that are shown are from earlier in the season. I have not updated the information on trackwrestling and only used the trackwrestling website as a redirect to our website for entries.

In fact I am going to take that down right now so there is no confusion, or any other misgivings regarding the tournament.

Sincerely,

Craig Gash
Tournament Director
Sprawl Nationals

So where can we see the correct entries??? And any other updates???

I think we should just take it upon ourselves to list who we are taking and at what weight..... Eeveryone up for it??

How much more shady can this tournament get?

This is just what I've seen so far:
You change dates
You change tournament directors
BRINGITON and MIXITUP get on here and act like "Mr. Concerned Wrestler" when they are the ones putting it on.
You promise to pay people back for their hotels (DID THAT EVER HAPPEN)!
You switch from a two day to a one day tournament! How does that effect peoples air, or travel, or hotels!
You say your using Track Wrestling and now your not.
People been looking on Track Wrestling to try and see if there will be enough kids to make it worth their while to go and now we find out that those numbers are false.

These are not shots at you! The Derby tournament has always been one of the best. How did you get involved with these 316mafia guys?

I hope the day comes we get a QUALITY national tournament in Wichita but not if its ran by these guys. We need to get a few big clubs together and do a JOC type of deal.
It will be harder now cause of the bad image this has left on us. What does the wrestling parents, clubs, and SPONSORS think of us now?

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!
I WILL BE AT WINFIELD!

I just wanted to clear a few things up! First of all, Sprawl is NOT a Derby Wrestling Club tournament. The people responsible for the idea of Sprawl are those associated with 316 Productions. I have been asked to help organize and run the actual wrestling. Thinking that this is a great opportunity for Kansas Wrestling, I said yes. I can see how that might associate Derby with it, as I am also the Tournament Director for DWC. Derby Wrestling Club is sending over half our wrestlers to Winfield because we want to support Winfield as we always have in the past. We also want to support Sprawl, so we are sending close to half there as well. If this was a Derby Tournament, rest assured, we would all be at one place. I believe that we are going to see GREAT competition at both tournaments and I hope they both go well.

If this is not a Derby Tournament then explain a few things...

Are the members of 316 productions a part of the Derby wrestling club?
Why is a Derby wrestlers picture featured on their web site?
Where are they getting the mats?
Where are they getting the table workers?

The DWC has an awesome reputation.
But sometimes when you lay with dogs you get fleas!
