The purpose and formation of this league is to develop the youth and high school wrestlers of
Southern Colorado through affordable, local and high quality competition and training events.  
Some of our values are strong levels of competition, local Friday and Saturday events to the
Colorado Springs and Pueblo and surrounding communities, strong club leadership
development and full USAW membership.  

TOURNAMENTS:
Our Saturday tournaments are run on a round robin and scratch weight format.  This means all of our
weigh-ins are done at your club site on Thursday evenings conducted by your clubs leader and emailed
to our tournament directors.

EMAILED ENTRANTS:  
All entrants must be emailed or faxed by no later than 10 am on the Friday prior to the tournament using
the Excel file provided by our web site under Coaches Corner.  Weigh-ins are conducted and entry fees
are collected by your coach prior to all tournaments (this is done to start the tournaments on time and
alleviate the problems of cutting weight.)  Weight classed are grouped by age division and scratch
weight.

CHECK IN:
Check in at least 30 minutes prior to tournament start time.  
(Usually a short clinic featuring an Olympian starts the morning followed by a warm up period to cover
this time.)

BRACKETS:
Round robin format

GATE FEES:  
No more than $5 for adults $3 for students. Under 6 free.  (This pertains to PPWL tournaments only, not
any duals that may be scheduled.)  Coaches get in free with a visible USA coaches card.

WEIGH-INS:
All entrants will have their weights emailed by their coach to the tournament director no later than Friday
at 10am.  At the tournament, up to 10% of the wrestlers may be randomly selected at check ins to weigh
in. Wrestlers must weigh with singlets on. If found to be more than 3 pounds over bracket weight, the
wrestler is disqualified with no re-entry.  K-5: is 3lbs variation and 6-8 is 5lbs weight variation.  

INSURANCE:
Everyone must have a full USA Wrestling card and must present this at check in. Each club or individual
will be responsible for getting their own cards online at
www.themat.com

HOSTING A TOURNAMENT:  
In order to advertise a tournament on PikesPeakWrestling.com, a director/coach must request a date on
a first come first serve basis.   The hosting tournament director/coach must provide an email and or fax
number to all coaches via
www.pikespeakwrestling.com no later than the Sunday prior to their tournament.  

EVALUATION:  
We want to improve our events.  Each coach is requested to fill out a tournament evaluation form for
each tournament.
