Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion College OLD TIMERS TOURNAMENTS??

Can high schoolers who have recently finished there highschool career this year wrestle in these old timers tournaments? JW

Yes they can. Holton Old Timers April 17

Wellington Old Timers Tournament is this weekend (April 3rd) at Wellington High School.

You have to be 18 yrs old for the OZ oldtimers as we require participants to sign a medical waiver so our kid's club isn't held responsible for any injuries that sometimes occur. There are printable flyers available at the Tournaments/Calendar link.

May have to combine weights and ages.
Old guys wrestle 1-1-1, young guys 1-11/2-1 1/2. All get 1 minute rest between periods!!

im sure glad you guys are putting these old timer tournys on its nice to see for us old guys to be able to go at it once again good job. now if i can just get back to kansas to go to one. will there be any later in the summer?

I may actually cut weight. I might be able to make 215 or 190 by then. Hell I don't know what I weigh anymore...I was as high as 250.

How long do these tournaments last and how many wrestlers sign up? Is this a allday event? Are there several of these every year?
Thanks,Dave

Dave,
I don't know how others run, but we run ours pretty much like a regular kids tourney. Last year we had over 100 wrestlers and we were finished with wrestling by about 3:00 pm. Takes a little longer to wrestle an oldtimers match because we give the old ones a little time to rest between periods. And, I see they are getting more and more popular, but we try to make ours super userfriendly so we can have a good tourney and keep guys coming back to have a good time.

What is the lowest weight class or do u just group all the little dudes under 145 in one weight bracket?

Right now the OZ tourney has 4 guys in the 18-25 age and 120-140 lbs division. This weight was not listed on our flyer, but due to some inquiries we added it. We've got more than double the entries we had at this time last year and expect lots of guys to just "show up" and pay on Sat.

See you in OZ on the 10th!!!

Coach Packard

All little guys should come so that I will have someone to wrestle!

Bell, i would come but i have that neosho thing. It would be fun wresting u though. Also how much do u weigh now?

well today I weighed 133

Are you going to post the results?

The Osawatomie Results are now up. Thanks Mike Juby for your help. We ended up with 7 "little guys" in that 120-140lbs. weight and it was a tough bracket! I scored the championship match and it was great-going into overtime!!! Thanks to all who helped and the Osawatomie Kid's Club would like to also thank all the guys that attended-from all over Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma!
