Women's Classes at Provincials

[Eric Roussin]

There has been some interest to offer three women's classes instead of two at the 2013 Provincials. The usual split is 0-143 and 144+. However, if three classes are offered, the most logical split would probably be 0-132, 133-154, and 155+. Would the women of Ontario support this change for the Provincials?

[Linda deGroot]

I would support offering 3 classes for women at Provincials. I think the 3 classes 0-132, 133-154 and 155+ that Eric suggested make sense. With Nationals in Ontario this year I think these classes will be easily filled.

[Joe Gould]

Yes!

Let's go with those classes.

Also, we should set youth classes nice and early too.

^^^^Agreed!

[Ashley Maher]

I think those classes are great Eric...
As for kids classes
How about these for starters and if they have to be changed the day of the event then that is what we do.

0-65
65-85
85-105
105-132
open

[Joe Gould]

I don't think they should be changed day of. I think they should be set early and not changed. Give kids and parents something to shoot for.

[Rob Hancock]

I also agree with having the kids classes set ahead of time. I don't think ANY provincial classes should be changed the day of the event. Here's my suggestion for the kids classes.

0-65
66-90
91-115
116-140
141-open

I agree with the new weight classes for women at the Provincials...great idea!!!

[Joanne Langlois]

Yup I think the women's classes need some tweeking. Those weight classes sound good to me too. I know there aren't a lot of women competing but the classes definitaly need to be changed even at the National level 10kg difference is a lot. Just saying.
