Wrestling Tournament Solutions - Clerk, Tournament Director

In 2014 I started clerking sectional tournaments for the Massachusetts High School DIvisional's.  They were 2014 - D2 Metro, 2015 - D3 Central,  2016 - D3 - South.

​

​I have over twenty years of running wrestling tournaments in Connecticut.  Annually during this time period I have run the Berlin Blast usually held the first weekend in January and the McGee Invitational.   The Berlin Blast Tournament is a USA Wrestling sanctioned event.  We have between 300 and 450 wrestlers attend this tournament ranging in age from 4 to 14 years old.  The McGee Invitational is a tournament run by the middle school program in Berlin, CT which invited 350 to 600 middle school wrestlers to a one day event.​I have also clerked the following high school tournaments:  Bristol Eastern JV Tournament (2021, 2023, 2024),  Wethersfield High Tournament (2019, 2021), Portland Highlander Wrestling Tournament (2015, 2016. 2017, 2019, 2023, 2024), Xavier HS - COLTER ABELY MID SEASON CLASSIC (2022, 2023, 2024) Bacon Academy Invitational (2022, 2023, 2024), NCCC Conference Tournament (2022, 2023, 2024).  Youth Tournaments: Somers 384 registrants -2024, Waterford 371 registrants, Berlin Jim Day (2023, 2024), USA Wrestling Kids 6U State Tournament (2022, 2023, 2024),- USA Wrestling Qualifier (2021, 2022, 2023, 2024) Multiple off-season tournaments.

​

​I have run these tournaments as a paper tournament (paper bout sheets used for scoring).  The software that I used was called TournamentPlus and allowed any configuration of brackets from round robin to 32 man straight brackets.  In 2016 I l switched to Flowrestling and FloArena and have use that for all tournaments since 2021.  In 2024 I moved to paperless tournaments and all digital format providing the computers, monitors for up to six mats.​ 

​

Here is what folks have said: 

2/5/2024 - "I just wanted to reach out to say thank you for a great hosting experience for our first tournament.  We've been to plenty, but this was the first time we've taken it on ourselves.  Having you there to manage the brackets and matches was a great comfort while we tried our best to keep everything running smoothly.  It was great to meet you!"  Thanks again for all of your help.

My best,
Kristin Karasevicz

I was not there unfortunately, but when I reached out to my board who attended, they had very good things to say about the format and how everything was run.  The wrestlers were happy too!!! Kudos to you and your staff! Have a good day,
