To: SF School District Athletic Coordinator

Stop Holding Back SF Wrestling

Thank you for all the support. The middle school athletes will be able to appeal their petition and send it in again for approval! Thank you Sioux Falls School District for working with us with this issue! Everyone within the district was great to work with and was very open to suggestions and coming up with a resolution. Thanks to everyone involved! See you on the mat!!

Sioux Falls public seventh and eighth grade middle schoolers have been denied the opportunity to wrestle at the high school level. Even in situations where the athlete, their parents, their coaches, the middle school administration and the high school administration have approved the athlete to petition up, the School District Athletic Coordinator is the only one to disapprove the request. It is unfair to deny an athlete the opportunity to wrestle at the high school level, if the ones closest to them approve...such as their parents, coaches etc.

Why is this important?

Please sign this petition to show your support for allowing capable 7th & 8th grade wrestlers the opportunity to wrestle with their respective high schools.
