Phil Long Dan Gable Challenge Points

The Dan Gable Challenge (DGC) series is a points series conducted throughout our regular season, specifically at tournaments called "Dan Gable Challenge" tournaments.  Our regular season tournament format is still in tact with these tournaments, but if your coach enters your wrestler in the elite group at these specific tournaments, then your wrestler will accumulate points based on their finish in their bracket.  The amount of points required to obtain "Dan Gable Challenge" winner is based on performance in the elite bracket, but also participation at the Dan Gable Challenge tournaments.  Normally the points required to win DGC is set well into the season, but based on the ability to miss one DGC and still win if a wrestler places 1st in every elite bracket.

Dan Gable Challenge points are awarded for ages 5-14 years old only (4Under is Novice/Intermediate only).  If you need to ask questions on the points, please ask your club coach, but if the points are incorrect you can contact Michelle Tollefson directly at Michelleric@yahoo.com
