General Tournament Information

Skin Checks

Coaches are encouraged to do a skin check on their wrestlers before each tournament. Skin Checks will be done at weigh-ins. Official doctor’s notes are required at weigh-in for questionable skin and/or health conditions. MWA officials may exclude wrestlers from wrestling if there are skin and /or health-related concerns.

MWA Tournament Rules and Behavior

Coaches:

You must have a coach’s band to be in the corner of a wrestling mat and/or enter areas designated for coaches. There will be no more than two coaches in the corner at any time. Teams warned more than two times for that day would have team points deducted for each additional violation. No Exceptions! Coaches must follow MYWA rules for team scoring. If a wrestler does not qualify to earn points for your program because they live in a town that has a MYWA member program, you must disclose the wrestler and they cannot score points for your program. This rule is only for calculating team standings. Violations of this rule may lead to a loss of your team award and/or a reduction in standings.

Wrestlers:

All wrestlers must stay in their designated warm-up area or in the stands while the tournament is in session. During live wrestling, wrestlers must not be on the mats unless called for their bout because they are wrestling next.

MATCH RULES AND OVERTIME: We will follow High School rules including those for overtime and take downs going out of bounds. Only exception is locking hands rule which will not be strictly followed.

Parents:

Parents must stay in the stands and outside of areas designated for coaches and competing wrestlers. Please keep the first row of the stands open for wrestlers and coaches. If you are, videotaping you must have permission from the tournament director and be restricted to areas designated for videography.
