Youth Club Wrestling Tournament Scheduler: Weight Classes and Mats

#Youth Wrestling#Club Wrestling#Tournament Scheduler#Weight Classes

Youth club wrestling events run 8-12 weight classes across 5-8 mats. With double elim brackets in each class, you might have 200+ matches before the day is over. A scheduler that thinks in weight classes first is essential.

Weight class binning

Wrestlers weigh in Friday night. The system auto-bins by weight, adjusts brackets for scratches, and publishes the first round Saturday at 6 AM.

Mat rotations

To keep all 8 mats live, rotate weight classes across mats. The scheduler should ensure no wrestler wrestles twice in a row on the same mat.

Scoring

Captain-entry won't cut it here — you need mat-side scorekeepers entering points. The bracket advances the moment the match ends.
