My child is EXTREMELY light/small for their age group. What do I do?

It is not uncommon for competitors in Youth Divisions to be of a certain age but significantly smaller than all other competitors at that age/belt level. If you suspect your child is going to be more than 10+ pounds lighter than the next closest competitor, please reach out to us at registration@tapcancerout.org. We may not be able to definitively tell you what's going to happen or where we are going to put them, but we can make a note of it for our Bracketing Team so that they can be prepared to address it on the day of the tournament. We will likely need to wait until all other competitors at that age (and younger) have checked-in and weighed-in before we can truly know what the options are.
