New policy at the Metra to be aware of this year. There is now a clear bag policy in place for Spectators.
Necessary items like medical devices, diaper bags can still be used. But, things like purses need to be in clear bags.
Here's a link that lays out the policy: https://www.metrapark.com/p/guestinfo/clear-bag-policy

For wrestlers and coaches, you will still enter through main concourse entry (like normal). Look for signage for dedicated lines on both east and west sides. You can bring in your gear bags. But, they are subject to a search.

First Interstate Arena prohibits all bags, backpacks, and other carriers from being brought into the arena with the following exceptions:

Still need hotel accommodations for this wkd? The good folks at AAU had shared the info, in the picture attachment, last week. It's for the old Holiday Inn.

But wait! It gets even better. We just caught word this weekend's rate is now $99/night.

Hmm...

Here's the direct link for purchasing your spectator passes for this coming wkd. The box office, on site, will also be an option.

Please remember that every wrestler will be required to exchange a signed liability waiver form for their weighin card during weighins.
That form can be found at our website,

**edit** please know this is request has nothing to do with operating our scoring computers. We hire licensed pairers for that role and is an entirely different job. This post is about the specific duties listed below.
Additionally, please take note that we are looking for groups to take a mat the entire tournament. We love the individual offers, but it's not what our need is.

Like to stay busy at tournaments? How does free entry and a few meals sound?
We offer any group these amenities if you agree to man a mat all wkd and be our mat manager. It only requires one person at a time. Duties are identifying, and banding, on deck wrestlers, throwing end of period baton for officials, making sure video camera stays squared up on mat.
Your group can be up to six people for the one mat.
If interested, email Jason at [email protected] and provide the worker names. We will have passes available at weighins on Friday night.

It is with great pleasure to let everyone know that we will be able to offer live streaming this year on all 14 mats. Flo Sports will be who we are partnering with in conjunction with 3XGear.
Once we have all details lined out, we will update this post.
Just wanted to get the word out so that you can let friends/family know. This was a well communicated desire by our tournament goers and we are happy it is coming together.
