How does a wrestler qualify for MYWA or MMWA Regionals at a particular weight?
In MMWA: If a wrestler weighs in at “X” weight twice (or more), and completes the tournament (wrestle until eliminated or you win a medal), he/she will be able to wrestle that weight at regionals. It doesn’t matter if that wrestler weighs in at other higher weights in other tournaments. If the tournament BUMPED them up (moved them to the next higher weight class) then they should still qualify at the weight registered at two weigh-ins. Each club coach/league representative is required to track this information during the season. However, if the wrestler weighed in only once in at a lower weight and one or more times at a higher weight, they must wrestle at higher weight. For example: you’re 9 years old, and weigh in at 82 lbs. at Swartz Creek, and compete in the 85 lb. weight class. Then you get sick for a week, and lose 10 pounds because you can’t eat normally. Then you weight in at 77 lbs. at Lake Fenton, and compete in the 80 lb. class. Then you don’t happen to compete any more befo
