*Weights for events are subject to change at any time up UNTIL 4 weeks out from competition time. I will not make any changes to weights after that time*

Order of athletes will not be re-ordered after the first 3 events. The order will stay the same as the signups roll in. We will re-order for the final event only. There is a benefit to signing up early!
