“Roadmap” to Junior Duals!

The 2017 USAW Junior National Duals will be held in Tulsa, OK at the Cox Business Center. The tournament is the grand stage for our national high school team events! Once again, state pride is a stake, as we compete against the nation. Clear your schedules for June 20-24 and make plans now to qualify and prepare yourself for this elite event.

JUNIOR DIVISION
Born 9/1/97 and after, plus currently enrolled in grades 9-12
WEIGHT CLASSES
100, 106, 113, 120, 126, 132, 138, 145, 152, 160, 170, 182, 195, 220, 285
ROADMAP
Kansas will send two teams to compete against the rest of the U.S. How do you become a member of these teams? Please read below:

FS/GR STATE
Team Kansas will fill the dual spots primarily by using the FS/GR State tournament, May 7th, 2016. The top two placers at this event are qualified for the Junior Dual teams in their respective weight class and style. If a placer elects not to compete then the USAWKS Coaching staff is allowed to fill these spots. Athletes can choose to change weight classes but in the event all spots are occupied they will have to win a best of three challenge match series. The coaching staff will move to the 3rd place finisher first and then look to ANY and ALL wrestlers from Kansas to fill the possible 48 spots!

• Sunday, May 7, 2016 – State Freestyle and Greco tournament in Hutchinson, KS.

JUNIOR DUAL PRE-CAMP
Details are still being worked out but it looks like...
Team Kansas will attend a pre-tournament camp at Pratt Community College in Pratt, KS on Sunday, June 18-19. This camp will focus on technique emphasis and rules, while conducting our challenge matches to determine roster spots. Wrestlers will be transported by bus to Tulsa at the conclusion of the camp.

CHALLENGE PROCESS
• Friday, May 5, 2016 (by Midnight) – Athletes interested in participating in the Junior Duals, but cannot make it to the State tournament, must have the official petition form filed with the Challenge Board. (E-mail below)
• Tuesday, May 9, 2016 – State tournament participants deadline to file to challenge at a different weight class, different age group, second chance, or injury.
• Challenges are 2 out of 3 and will take place at the Duals camp (mini tournament to determine challenger in the event there are 2 or more challengers)
*** In the event the selection process as described above yields NO competitors willing to fill a spot on the team, the dual team staff will then have the opportunity to select ANY eligible wrestler to fill the “spot” on the team.
Wrestlers must have a current USA Wrestling Membership Card.
All registration is handled through the state. Registration is not available to individuals.
