Boston Youth Wrestling is celebrating the end of the school year by hosting a wrestling
tournament open to the entire wrestling community! We are rounding out a year of tremendous
success in growing wrestling in the city of Boston. We have added 3 new youth and middle
school teams, expanded our offseason clubs for wrestlers of all ages, and saw continued growth
in our existing programs. All proceeds from the tournament will go toward helping to fund new
high school and middle school teams in the upcoming school year.
Registration: $20 pre-register, $25 at the door. Elementary and Middle School wrestlers
MUST pre-register (link at bottom of the form). High school and open can register at the
door, but must pay by credit, debit, check, or money order. No cash please.
Divisions: Elementary (K-5)
High School (9-12)
Middle School (6-8)
Middle School Elite (6-8)
High School Elite (9-12)
Open
[Elite divisions are for experienced middle school and high school wrestlers looking for tougher
competition. All MS and HS entrants can choose whether they want to wrestle in the standard division or
the elite division. An elite MS wrestler likely has 2+ years of experience and has placed at competitive
tournaments. An elite HS wrestler is likely a varsity starter with a record at least above 0.500. These
divisions help us ensure all wrestlers face opponents that are relatively close in skill.]
Weigh-ins: All divisions will use Madison (group) weights. Wrestling begins
approximately 1 hour after scales close for each division.
