Benefits of Membership
The MSWA is the State Chapter for USA Wrestling
Membership Year: September 1 through August 31
USA Wrestling is the National Governing Body for the Sport of Wrestling in the United States and, as such, is its representative to the United States Olympic Committee. Simply, USA Wrestling is the central organization that coordinates amateur wrestling programs in the nation and works to create interest and participation in these programs.
It is not the wild, or “off the top rope,” stuff you might have seen on television. The many programs and activities conducted by USA Wrestling or the thousands of chartered clubs, provide opportunities for youth and adults alike to gain an understanding and appreciation for the international styles of wrestling, Freestyle and Greco-Roman, and folkstyle (scholastic and collegiate) which is the style practiced at high schools and colleges across the country.
USA Wrestling has more than 225,000 members. These members include athletes of all ages, coaches, officials, parents and fans striving together to strengthen the sport. Part of USA Wrestling’s mission is to foster grassroots development for the sport.
Each year, USA Wrestling charters over 4000 wrestling clubs and sanctions over 2000 local, state, regional and national competitions. These opportunities and more are just a small part of the exciting world of USA Wrestling.
