NVWF Age Groups for Dulles

- Dulles wrestlers divided by age groups (updated January 1, 2018) ~ attached here

- Age groups compete at separate times during the day with the Bantams/Midgets first, followed by the Juniors, then Intermediates, then the Seniors last. This way parents and kids don't have to be in a gym all day long. 

NVVWF Season Final Tournament

- Saturday, February 24, for Bantams, Midgets, Seniors

- Sunday, February 25, for Juniors, Intermediates 

- Seeding for wrestlers will be based on points accumulated by wrestlers throughout the season. Beginners start off with no points at the beginning but accumulate points for participating plus wins. Pins get the greatest number points as compared to a mere decision. Experienced wrestlers start off with 50 points for one year of prior experience, and additional 10 points for each year prior experience. They too get more points for wins, pins, and participation. 

- The Gold group will consist of the top wrestlers with the most points, the Silver group with the next points, and so on. Therefore, highly skilled wrestlers will not face inexperienced wrestlers that have lost during the season. 

- Qualifications for the season finals is for those that have competed in at least 5 NVWF events
