Win Win - promoting our KS Colleges and having those coaches and athletes mentoring KS Kids, and HS wrestlers and keeping the money in the state.
What about discounted commuter camps, duals at our KS colleges and make it available to all the Kansas USA kids and keep some of those funds in the state. Just a thought. Or host some duals in Kansas. I think it would be a good use for some of the fees that our club wrestlers, other clubs and families pay. We only have about 100 kids this year (1,500 -2,000 wrestlers over the last 25 years) - but over the years that adds up and has help the USAWKS Fund balance..

Coach Freije and the other KS College Coaches
There is a LOA - Letter of Understanding that gets mailed to the colleges in April every year.
Below are a couple sample LOA's for some of the colleges in previous years.
LETTER OF UNDERSTANDING between Kansas collegiate wrestling institutions and USAW-Kansas, Inc.-Kansas College Wrestling Fund (a.k.a. USAW-Kansas, Inc.-KCWF).
The Colby Community College – 1255 South Range, Colby, KS 67701 herein agrees to accept funds from USAW-Kansas, Inc.-KCWF with the following conditions:
1. The principal amount will become a part of the University's perma¬nent restricted fund for the wrestling program. The funds should be distributed without restriction to race, gender, national origin, religion, age, sexual orientation or disability. Funds from this account will be made available annually to the wrestling program based upon the then current spending policy which will have been established and approved by the University's Board of Trustees. 2. It is herein stated and expressly understood that at no time shall the initial amount set forth as a gift for the Colby Community College Wrestling Program be invaded or used in any manner inconsistent with the directions and desires as designated by the KCWF foundation. 3.

"TRANSPARENCY Smokey... IS there something you want to accuse us of? You have been bald face lying on other threads, care to take a shot at me on this one too? Keep pushing me and the thread from our text exchange will be published along with the chain of events that led to the dissolving of the KCWF." _________________________ Will Cokeley (708)267-6615 willcokeley@gmail.com
I promise The Kansas College Wrestling Fund will reappear without the current Vice Chairman involved and it may have a different name - It may be in a different form. I and other committee members decided to not volunteer working 400 to 500 hours per year (in total 800-1,000 per year or 2 people) raising funds for the Kansas colleges - When the Vice Chairman was sending emails like I will kick the KCWF Committee's ass (12 or 13 members and their constituents) and raise funds solely for Ft Hays ( I can get the exact email and date if you need to refresh your memory). In addition to that the Vice Chairman said something to the effect that he would send every Junior college potential recruit to out of state Junior Colleges and not promote Kansas schools. - Also, there is an exact email from the Junior college rant – by Will. The Will Cokeley Bylaws are much different than the USA KS Wrestling Bylaws as well as our parent organizations bylaws USA Wrestling National and KSHSAA. I am sure the funds still being raised and in the KCWF fund balance of the current KCWF will be distributed per the parameters set forth by the KCWF Committee and approved by the USA Wrestling KS Board. It may be a long road establishing a Kansas Collegiate Wrestling Fund and an uphill battle - with the right people for the right reasons it will be worth it. It is very counter productive I just want our efforts to help provide opportunities to current and future student/athletes. I will devote time to ensure the Kansas Colleges continue to have academic and athletic wrestling opportunities in Kansas.
