We have a couple spots open in next years Holiday Hammer on December 29th & 30th 2017. We are located in Abingdon VA 2 minutes off Interstate 81. We are less than 3 hours from Charleston and about 2 hours from Beckley. In Virginia we are allowed to enter more than one wrestler per wt class so we do allow teams to enter extra or "B"team wrestlers into the tournament. I try to run this tournament as quickly as possible and we will run 4 mats for the finals so we can finish early and get teams on the road home. We weigh-in on the first day noon-1:00pm (by team) to allow teams ample time to travel the morning of the first day. On the second day, we anticipate we will be completely finished by 4:30.

We give out Custom Diamond Plated Aluminum Hammers (3 feet tall) to the Champion of each wt class as well as one to the winning coach of the team champions. Be sure to check out the pic of the Hammer (pic attached).

Here are a couple tidbits from this years tournament:
