Joe,
Is there a weigh-in site in the Topeka area. If not can we host one. We did it last year several times and I think we did it for your tourney.

Thanks

Joe,
Kansas Thunderstruck Wrestling Club in Garnett would like to host a weigh-in site here if possible. Let me know thank you.

Registration is now closed. Thank you all for getting your kids registered!

It is looking like the AM Session will complete in aprox. 4 hrs. (noon). We will start the PM session at the conclusion of the AM session. The PM session run time looks to be around 3.5 hrs.

Just a reminder the AM Session start time is 8AM.

We are excited for another great day of wrestling.

As they say in Hollywood, the show must go on! The Paola Open is still on. Please use your own judgement, be cautious and drive within your abilities. Allowing extra travel time may be a good idea as well.

If you know you are not going to make it, please text kids name/age/weight to let us know.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again and what looks to be some exciting match ups!

Joe, I wanted to thank you for host a girls tournament. My daughter had a great time. My wife who coached my daughter for the first time enjoyed herself also. Thanks again.

The Paola Wrestling Club would like to thank everyone who braved the weather to come our tournament. We hope everyone enjoyed yourselves and will be back again next year.

I have a bag of lost and found items. If you are missing something, please let me know.

Thanks again!

@Josh - glad to hear it. I had several people comment the addition of the girls divisions was something they liked.

@Bryan - I appreciate the kind words, especially on the pace. That is something I looked at a lot this year to try to get the matches in quickly...especially with the weather!
