Just throwing out some ideas. Get rid of the district tournaments. Move to 8 region tournaments. The top 2 from each region qualify. Have a true 2nd match so the 2 best wrestlers have the chance to qualify. Have the region tournaments the first weekend in March and then state the following weekend. That way it isn’t spread out over an Entire month. Change the schedule for the youth state tournament as well. Cadets, Juniors and HS girls wrestling freestyle still wrestle Friday night. Tots, Bantams and Midgets weigh in some time on Friday and wrestle all the way through on Saturday. Novice, Schoolboy and girls weigh in sometime on Saturday and then wrestle completely through on Sunday. Also by splitting it up this way the kids could have more room than just a quarter of a mat to wrestle on. Especially the older divisions should have more space. They should also figure out a way to livestream the matches. That way people who can’t be there are able to watch.
