WISCONSIN WRESTLING FEDERATION
2012 WWF Kids Folkstyle State Tournament (Times will be updated as WWF Updates Their Information) The 2012 WWF Kids Folkstyle State Tournament will be held on Friday and Saturday, March 23rd and 24th at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison again this year. It is located on the Southeast side of Madison on Rimrock Rd, just north of the beltline, Hwys 12 & 18. The host club is the Stoughton Wrestling Club. Please see below for the Time Schedule of Events for the Kids State Folkstyle Tournament. Girls will have weight classes in 2011 and the top 2 in each age and weight class qualify for the state tournament and we will call 3rd place finishers to fill in brackets just like the boys. We will do our best to give them matches at the Regionals if there no one in their bracket. Girls will then have to make the weight they qualified at just like the boys. The weight classes are listed below. Since there is a seperate Girl's Division no girls can wrestle in the Boy's Divisions only in the Girls Division. WIAA Rules will apply in the Folkstyle State Tournament and Regionals, except the time periods are one minute long except at the state tournament Boys Born in 1996-97 will wrestle 1-1/2 minute periods. There is also 20 minutes rest in between matches as in USAW instead of the 45 minutes given in WIAA. Brackets will not be shown to the the public until weigh-ins start.
