Washington State Event Sanction Requirements 2006-2007
 
1) You must be a current year’s chartered club in to host an event in Washington
2) You must send in all Folkstyle sanctions no later than October 15th in order to be processed
3) You must send in all Freestyle and Greco Roman sanctions prior to December 31st, If you do not, then the first club, in that region, who puts in a sanction and pays the fees will receive that date
4) You must send in proof that you have a current year’s pairing official and a current year’s mat official in your club. You need to mail in a copy of their membership cards with your sanction. This is a by-law and will be enforced.
5) Your facility must meet safety requirements to hold your event.
6) Weigh ins for all events will be from 7-8am on Saturday mornings on the day of the event with wrestling to begin at 10am unless otherwise posted on the WSWA webpage. Weigh ins will not go any longer than that timeframe. The head mat and pairing official have been instructed to leave the event if the club host cannot follow policy. If the organization learns that the weigh ins went longer than this timeframe, then the board will meet to discuss sanctions on future tournaments for that club. A pairing and mat official will be assigned to monitor weigh ins for each event and will close the weigh ins and pull registration cards at 8am sharp.
7) USA Cards must be purchased online prior to an event. If a wrestler or coach does not have his/her card with them when they register for event, then they will be required to purchase another at the event with no refunds. Cards sales at events are not encouraged. If a wrestler is practicing in your room – per your charter they must have a card. So they should already have them prior to the events.
8) $2.00 per entry for each tournament goes to the state into a National team fund. You must mail this money with a copy of the count sheet from the pairings room to our Treasurer, Mary Douglas within 2 days of your event or sanctions may be held against your club. Her address is:

Mary Douglas
15985 Elfin Lane
Mount Vernon, WA. 98273

9) Officials pay scales/compensation for events have been modified. Ensure you get in touch with the Karen Ebel or Tony Arredondo to find out the correct amounts.
10) Foreign Athlete cards are the same price as other athletes at events.
11) Card sales at events must be faxed to Sherry Bullard within 1 day of the event in order to be processed online. The fax number is (360) 297-1695. You must also send in the original and money that same day. Ensure the faxes are readable and contain full birthdate and e-mail addresses. Use the online forms – not the blue and white sheets – they fax in a readable format. Send in $40.00 per card sold at events (same as online cost of processing).
