Discussion Topic: Tournament for Mentally/Physically Challenged
The Ohio Athletic Committee is exploring the interest in conducting a one day, NO entry fee and No admission fee tournament for the physically and or mentally challenged youth. This event would be a competition and instructional tournament that would allow the officials to work with both wrestles during the matches if needed. We would group wrestlers not only by weight and age but also by the degree of physical/mental ability. All wrestlers would receive trophy for their participation not their placement. We would be looking at possibly doing this either the day before or the day after the Grade School State in 2009. If you know of someone that would like to participate in an event like this please go to www.ohioathletics.com and participate in the poll . This will allow us to keep you informed through email with the results of the poll and the amount of interest. We will not know if this will be initiated next year until we get some feedback. This could be an awesome experience for these challenged youth. It can really make a difference in their lives. Thank you for your participation. If you have any questions PLEASE contact me at juderoth@ohioathletics.com

If we have Special Olympics, why not a tourney of this nature? I think it's a great idea.
