The spring season offers a wide variety of both beginner and high-caliber local, state, and national competitions for our wrestlers, including Dominate in the Dells (Folkstyle), Folkstyle Nationals, Women's Nationals, the U.S. Open (freestyle and Greco), WWF Beginners Freestyle and Greco State, WWF’s Wisconsin Freestyle and Greco State Championships, and the Northern Plains Regional Championships. Please visit USA Wrestling for their complete event schedule.
In the summer, Team Wisconsin will travel together and compete nationally at 14U, 16U and Junior National Duals, and at the 16U and Junior National Championships (Fargo).
Women’s National Duals, June 17-21 in Westfield, Indiana
National Duals are age-level USA Wrestling events featuring some of the best women’s freestyle wrestlers on state teams from across the country! Team Wisconsin will compete in the 14U, 16U and Junior divisions at Women’s National Duals in Westfield, Indiana in 2025.
TEAM SELECTION
CAMPS: All age groups are required to attend the National Dual Team prep camps on June 8th for Juniors at UWSP, and June 14th for the 14U & 16U teams at Nazar Trained in Madison.
The Junior and 16U National Championships, aka Fargo, is a high-caliber USA Wrestling national event where the top freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestlers are tested against the rest of the nation individually and as respective state teams. As the Wisconsin affiliate to USA Wrestling, the WWF brings a unified team of athletes to compete each season.
Qualification process for WFS
All wrestlers must qualify to compete at Fargo! The WWF can bring four (4) athletes per weight class, per division. To qualify for the Wisconsin National Team, wrestlers must auto-qualify nationally (opportunities listed below), place top three at the 2025 WWF Freestyle State Championships (same weight and style), or win a wrestle-off at the pre-Fargo camps in River Falls. A minimum of one wrestle-off spot is reserved at each weight class per age group and style. Since national auto-qualifiers do not count against the allotted number the state can bring, any auto-qualified wrestler that places in the top three at WWF freestyle state opens up an additional wrestle-off spot at camp.
Auto-qualifier opportunities
16U Women: (Born 2009-2010). Match Lengths: Two two-minute periods with 30-second rest between periods for all matches.
Junior Women: (Born September 1, 2005 and after plus currently enrolled in grades 9-12). Two three-minute periods with 30-second rest between periods for all championship and medal matches.
Cost & Registration: JR or 16U $550. Both divisions $725. Athlete fees will cover hotel, transportation and registration. The cost does NOT include the uniform package/singlets. Registration opens May 5.

Uniforms: The WWF releases new singlets every other year, with the latest update in 2024. Athletes representing Team Wisconsin at the 16U and Junior National Championships in Fargo are responsible for purchasing the Team Wisconsin uniform package (at minimum, a red and blue singlet). Qualified wrestlers that do not wish to purchase a new set of singlets may use a generic reversible singlet offered by the WWF coaching staff. Athletes who purchased singlets in 2024 do NOT need to purchase them again this year.
Credentials: Everyone must have an updated headshot in their USA Wrestling profile. Go to the membership website and click on “profile” to see if you have an uploaded photo. Watch the tutorial video on how to upload your photo here.
