*New Developments*

1. With the fantastic response on sign-ups our board has voted to reward those bringing multiple teams of girls. 

A $50 DISCOUNT WILL BE APPLIED TO YOUR FINAL TOTAL FOR EVERY ADDITIONAL TEAM REGISTERED. 

COSTS - FIRST TEAM REGISTERED $750, EVERY ADDITIONAL TEAM $700 

Bring 2 teams save $50, Bring 6 Teams (like our friends in Nebraska) and save $250

With this year now being fully managed by our women's wrestling board we are able to make such executive decisions that are not impactful to the boy's national dual event and their fees. 

Thank you for helping to support our efforts to grow women's wrestling

2. New Division - With the responses from the survey we believe we are able to implement a "development1" Progressive Youth Division. 

This is a division for youth non state place winners. It is to give an opportunity for all girls from all levels to compete at the event. If you would like your youth team to compete in this new Youth Progressive division, please let us know. If we are unable to fully support this division, we will simply add those teams to the youth pools as always, and they will battle it out with teams of similar records in championship pools.

*MAKE CHECKS PAYABLE TO: IOWA AAU GIRLS WRESTLING*

A brief description of the rules is:

1. It is still Folk style 

The " Stalemate" is still folk and not the shortened freestyle stalemate

That way breakdowns and turns are still able to be scored 

2. All restarts are back on your feet

Basically the whistle blows, start of period, out of bounds, etc.... kids go back onto their feet

3.Step out while in neutral position it's 1pt

Scrambles during take down, or from top or bottom position there is no point. Additionally, the points do not combine. A take down that lands out of bounds is still just 2pts. 

Everything else is just typical Folk style.

Please review these rule as written by an official for a more in depth explanation.
