This is the reason why I do not like the WVYWA. Everything that they do is smoke and mirrors. Unless you are in the loop of a handful of coaches then you do not know what is going on. There is so much confusion with weights, seeds, brackets, results, etc, etc that the majority of the people going to...

I for one think the new format is good and promotes the sport. I never in my 50 plus years around the sport and on the mats seen I better run youth tournament the one in Huntington last year. YES, few bugs need worked out but very minimal. As far as amount of money made on Parkersburg states. Are y...

Money from the WVYWA? First of all, they have no money from last years tournament to give back to anyone. Has anyone in the state seen a penny from this organization? The WVYWA was created due to guys having a chip on their shoulder about money and qualifying for a youth state tournament. There are ...

To Enichols1911 I would like to point out that in the little gym, one of the competitive edge coaches kids was permitted to wrestle for a true second. Nobody else on that mat was permitted, but he made sure that their wrestler got to wrestle that extra match when everyone else was told no. We had ki...

We are still waiting in our 1st match and been here since 11:30. It is 5:45. In the little gym, two different teams are running both mats.

I agree 100%. I have been here with my nephew since 11:30 and he hasaid not wrestled yet. Part of the issue is that kids are running everything. Plus allowing over 200 walk ins is crazy. They had to pay a cougars parent coach to complete the brackets since nobody here knee how to do them. Kids sit a...

Coach Williams. Post by coach_williams » Mon Jan 04, 2016 12:32 pm I can't find that thread to link to it, but I believe that if you look at my posts later in that thread you will see that I admit I was wrong about the age structure. If you consider making a mistake and then admitting it was a mist...

"Coach Wiliams" - You want to get on here and constantly degrade the Jr. States, the WVSSAC and any other group/individual that does not agree with you. Why are you not boasting about the huge numbers that attended the region tournament this two weekends ago in Jackson County? You have poi...

I said my piece earlier in this thread, but continue to read about how the points are messed up, some have counted and submitted, some have not. It all goes back to my point, change is good and welcome, but I believe that the people backing this idea initially have taken too big of a bite and need t...

I agree 100% with Wrestle_DaD - short and to the point, but somehow I have read so much on this over the summer and wrestling season that I am going to have trouble being brief. Location really should not have anything to do with a discussion, unless the tournament is held in Braxton County (the mos...

I have sat back and read alot about the "new" WVYWA system and here are my thoughts While I do not believe that qualifier should be out of question, I too see several issues with the WVYWA regionals and point system. 1. - look over the website for the WVYWA - how many kids are receiving po...
