TheMat.com, the official web page of the Amateur Wrestling Alliance, has launched a new Message Board section. The popular Message Boards were experiencing technical problems in recent weeks, due to the large amount of usage and problems with the existing software. The new TheMat.com Message Boards have been designed to handle the volume of traffic better, providing a better experience for the users. Each user will have to register again with TheMat.com, a fast and easy process that will open full access to the Boards to those signed up. TheMat.com will maintain the same Message Board topics as in previous years: International, College, High School, Youth, Women, Title IX and Mixed Martial Arts. However, two new categories have been added, based upon suggestions from users and a desire to be more comprehensive: The Art of Coaching, Rules and Officiating. All those involved in these areas of interest should visit the new Boards and get the discussion going. TheMat.com Message Boards are sponsored by DJ Sportwear, a leader in the wrestling product field. TheMat.com apologizes for any incovenience to our users during its period of transition. "We are excited about our new Message Boards and invite all previous users back," said Meredith Witulski, Director of Internet Operations. "We are pleased to provide the wrestling community with an entertaining and informative way to communicate with others in the sport." Please let your friends within wrestling know that TheMat.com Boards are new and improved and back in action. Welcome home.
