    Should attend a Judo tournament:eek2: Jeff had his first tournament Saturday and we had to be there for check-in's at 8:30am. He finally got to do his first match at 7:30pm:puzzled: So we waited 11-1/2 hours for 3 minutes of mat work but the result was worth it. Silver medal in the under 135lb class!

    Same problems with tournaments in Vegas. 10 hour day for 6 to 12 minutes of action. Sign up for everything you can! But it does cost more at that point :Dou:

    Wrestling starts this week and its the same thing. Weigh in is 6am then you go to the school that is hosting the tournement. Usually our first match is 9-930 for 3-4 minutes total unless we win early with a pin. then wait for 1.5 hours minumum for the next round then repeat for at least 5 rounds sometimes 6 by the time you get home its 11 pm

    Oh yea last year he was 29-5 for the season...........we are looking forward to this year can you say state!
