Question
Hello.Im rocky 14 years old boy .my question is that can i participate in more than 1 category or not.and can i participate in super heavyweight category in 2012 olympics.thank you

Answer
Hi Rocky - I'm not exactly sure what you are asking.  What do you mean by "category?"  If you are referring to weight, you can only compete in the weight division you weigh-in for.  If you weigh over 201 Lbs., you would definitely be in the Super Heavyweight division.  In order to compete in the Olympics, you will have to make your country's team and also qualify in a continental tournament.
