2008 Age Division & Weight Classes

California USA Wrestling has not posted the 2008 Age and weight classes, but I think it would be safe to assume that they're the same as last year.

Click here to open a pdf document showing your age division and weight class information for 2007.

A note on age classification: Your wrestling age is the age you will turn this year.

Training

Check out this site: WrestlingsBest.com to see videos of various wrestling moves and holds.

Here's a link to the wrestling officials website that shows the new clinches. Note that the last time I tried it, the video links were broken. You may have better luck.

A parent of one of our wrestlers pointed out this web site that links to some instructional wrestling videos. Click here to check them out.

Here's another good site for videos: FloWrestling

Equipment Suppliers

The following companies have generously offered our team either direct discounts or they will send our team a percentage of the sales when purchases are made through these links.

This company is offering our club 5% back on all purchases. Simply enter the code "RAWC" on any order placed via their website, or tell the operator to use that code if placing your order by phone. Make sure you use that code, or our club won't get credited with the sale.
