2011 ASICS USAW Folkstyle Nationals Message Board Post #3

We have already had wrestlers from 27 states sign up for the 2011 ASICS USAW Folkstyle Nationals!

USA Wrestling does not charge athletes to change weight classes after they register, even at weigh-ins, so wrestlers are encouraged to sign up early to guarantee their spot in the tournament. Registration will be capped at 1,000 wrestlers for Cadets and Juniors, and 1,500 wrestlers for Kids and Veterans.

Just announced! Our special guest at this year?s Folkstyle Nationals is 2-time NCAA Champion and 2010 U.S. World Team Member Brent Metcalf! Wrestlers will have the chance to meet Brent as he prepares to make a run for the 2012 U.S. Olympic Team.

Earn the right to be on the USA Wrestling National Events Poster for the 2011-2012 season! The ASICS USAW Folkstyle Nationals is the first stage of USA Wrestling?s Triple Crown Series. The next two stages are the ASICS Kids Freestyle/Greco-Roman Nationals (intermediate, novice, and schoolboy) or the ASICS/Vaughan Junior & Cadet Freestyle/Greco-Roman Nationals (cadet and junior). Any wrestler that wins national titles in Folkstyle, Freestyle, and Greco-Roman will have their picture on next year?s USA Wrestling National Events Poster.
