Happy Holidays from the WWF Women's Program! 2017 is right around the corner. Coach Kevin Black has many training and competition opportunities planned. With the exception of two folkstyle tournaments in March, all of the training and tournaments are freestyle.
We have three national tournaments scheduled:
- USA Wrestling Girls Folkstyle Nationals in Oklahoma City, March 23-25 (cadets/juniors)
- Women's Nationals in Dallas, May 19-21 (schoolgirls, cadets, juniors)
- Asics Cadet/Junior National Championships in Fargo, July 15-21 (cadets/juniors)
The WWF will be paying for athlete hotel stays and tournament registration for each event. Transportation is the responsibility of the athlete for Girls Folkstyle Nationals and Women's Nationals. The WWF will provide bus transportation for the wrestlers to the National Championships in Fargo. Keeping that in mind, we will be providing you with hotel information for parents wishing to attend the tournaments and possible transportation such as the team bus to OKC. First up is Girls Folkstyle Nationals in OKC.
