Gender Categories / Weight Classes
To fit the needs of our particular community we provide three gender categories (non-binary, women, men). We recognize that many of our gender non-conforming and transgender friends deserve an affirming place at our meet and on our platform and we welcome everyone to choose the gender category that suits you.
Additionally, we have greatly reduced the amount of weight classes found at typical sanctioned meets to three broad classes:
Lightweight (Up to 65kgs /143lbs)
Middleweight (65kgs-95kgs/143lbs-209lbs)
Heavyweight (Over 95kgs / 209lbs)
**We will not ask to weigh you, but are trusting that, as adults, you are all able to choose the weight class that best represents you on competition day.**
Some of you have asked in the past to be weighed on competition day to provide the "feel" of a sanctioned meet, and we can also accomodate this if asked. If you have any questions about these categories, please reach out to Katie at excusemekatie@gmail.com.
