Groveport Madison... 5-6:30pm on Tuesday. These will begin 4 days prior to our Friday night tournament. And that will take place on the 8th, so open mats will start April 5th. There you have it.

Most programs give the rest of March to rest and reload. Open mats usually start the first week in April. I will likely go to Bishop Ready on Sundays and Groveport Madison on Tuesdays.

Bitter, you're correct. We (Ready) usually begin ours in April but due to our freestyle club and Palm Sunday/Easter Sunday (April 17 & 24), we'll begin ours May 1st.

I know a good number of boys that plan on coming to this one and with the Hackett brothers running it I am sure it will be a good one.

I assume that all three of the Olentangy schools will open up their rooms at least once a week. I think the Westervilles do as well. Like I said, things will ramp up when April comes.

Groveport Madison open mats will begin April 5th, 2011. They will run (just about*) every Tuesday night from April 5th through October 25th.

Our open mats are conducted @

Groveport Madison Middle School NORTH
5474 Sedalia Drive
Columbus, OH 43232

We will have fliers for just about everything we can get our hands on; from camps to clinics to other open mats to clubs, to other open tournaments... Hope to see you then.

* I say just about because once a year the cleaning technicians strip and wax the floors and we are not allowed in the building. Also, we are trying (fingers crossed font on) to get something going in late June as far as a camp. But we'll see on that one...
