Weight Class Structure and Advancement Policy

Each weight class is scheduled to accommodate up to 16 boxers over the 4-day tournament. This number ensures all bouts can be completed within the allotted time.

• As this is an advancing competition, there will be no sub-categories.

• If more than 16 boxers register in a single weight class, the division will be split into two brackets (A & B).

• Both brackets will run separately, and the gold medalist from each (A & B) will advance to Nationals.

This approach maintains fairness while ensuring the tournament runs smoothly within the scheduled timeframe.
