COVID-19 Procedures **UPDATED**

  • Each athlete will be allowed to designate two attendees for the event. These people will need to be either a parent or coach. Please designate the person(s) during registration on TrackWrestling or via our Attendee List page. This will need to be finalized by Friday September 11th at 11pm EST time.
  • All attendees MUST wear face coverings. Athletes will be exempt from this when they are warming-up or competing.
  • If you are not feeling well, experiencing symptoms or may be at a higher risk for getting very sick, we recommend you stay home and watch the live stream through TrackWrestling. 
  • Each person entering the event will be subject to a screening for COVID-19 symptoms.
  • Attendees that are not registered for a specific session will not be allowed into the building. Athletes that need to stay through multiple sessions can do so with prior approval. Please email Joe@IndianaMat.com to confirm.
  • In order to encourage social distancing there will be extremely limited seating, it is highly recommended that spectators bring their own "camp" chairs for seating.
  • Handshaking and normal match procedures such as raising an athlete's hand will be limited and/or eliminated at the discretion of the referees.

 

Registration and Weigh-In Information
**Due to COVID-19 procedures we will have only one weigh-in session**

  • Saturday September 12th from 1:00-3:00 pm EST
    *Note: No weight change fee
  • No Satellite Weigh-ins
  • Weigh-ins will be in a singlet or NFHS approved two-piece uniform

 

Weight Changes **UPDATED**
As noted there will be no charge for weight changes. However, in order to help our staff with check-in of attendees we have created a form to notify us of a weight change. This will help reduce confusion at check-in for the attendees if an athlete changes weight.
