RULES:

Wrestlers in grades 8 and below are eligible. High School wrestlers are NOT eligible for The Fab 50. Grade is based on 2009-10 school year.

Only Michigan residents are eligible

Points can be earned by wrestler’s placing in any of the Fab 50 credited events for the 2010-20101season (see event list and scoring system below).

Only one placing can be used from a single event (for example if someone competes in 2 age groups or weight classes at a tournament and places in both, only one placing can count towards Fab 50.)

Travel Rule - Wrestler may only accrue a maximum of 50 points from "out of state" events. All tournaments that do not take place in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, or Illinois will be considered "out of state"

Wrestlers/parents are responsible for reporting results following each event to: fab50@michigangrappler.com

If you do not send in results we cannot guarantee that the results will be recorded and your points counted for

that event.

Blatant mistakes and/or attempts to tamper with a wrestlers's points and standing will be grounds for complete removal from the Fab 50. Michigan Grappler will handle any such occurences on a case-to-case basis

Placing in "novice" or "rookie" divisions of tournaments will not count towards the Fab 50

(For example - The Tulsa Nationals have a "Rookie" Division for wrestlers with 2yrs expierence or

less, placing in that division will not score points in the Fab 50.)

2010-2011 TENTATIVE SCHEDULE:

These events are confirmed, however, schedule/scoring is subject to change

** For ASICS Kids Nationals - Any junior high wrestlers who compete as Cadets for USAW events, placing at the Fargo Cadet Nationals will count as a replacement for the Kids Nationals

Check back frequently for additions to this year's schedule!
