The Texas USA Wrestling board members would like to thank you for your continued support, and appreciate all your investment in your child(ren) / athletes. This year, TXUSAW is committing over $100,000 in support of the Texas Freestyle & Greco-Roman Wrestling National Teams. This value represents more than 65% of the total estimated costs for the duals teams. Like last year, you will have to option to purchase your airfare and hotel as part of the team package, or you can choose to arrange your own travel, lodging, and meals. The total costs are represented below: including all wrestler travel, hotel, and meal costs, and an equal share of the coach's costs.
| 14U Duals | 16U Duals | JR Duals | Fargo |
Men's | $800 | $800 | $100 | $1,900 |
Women's | $100 | $100 | $100 | $1,500 |
WM 16U & JR duals are combined teams
Every wrestler participating on a national team is required to cover an equal portion of the training camp costs, coaches costs, and registration costs.
We will utilize the same gear package as last year. If you kept your gear from last year, and it still fits, you do not need to purchase it again this year. The purchase of the national team gear is required to compete at F/G Duals and Fargo. The cost of the gear is $300, and is in addition to the team registration costs above. We will have gear available to purchase at our Freestyle & Greco state.
