Entry is now open for the English Junior Wrestling Championships!
British Wrestling would like to apologise for the late notice for this competition, unfortunately, the venue originally booked for the competition was cancelled in order to support the roll-out of the coronavirus vaccine booster programme. Securing a new venue capable of hosting the competition and providing the experience we want to provide has taken a significant effort and time.
However, we are now pleased to announce that the Castle Leisure Centre in Bury will host the English Junior Championships on 12th March 2022. The competition will feature all UWW and BWA age categories over three mats. Spaces are limited and competitors and spectators are encouraged to book early to avoid disappointment. Early bird prices are available until 11th February with entry just £25 and £3 for spectators, coaches are free with a competing athlete but must book to attend. The full price for entry is £35 and £5 for spectators (u12s are free).
You can book now through the British Wrestling membership platform.
Medals 1st, 2nd & 3rd place in categories with at least 2 wrestlers. 8 and above in a weight group will attract 2 Bronze medals.
British Wrestling is continuing to monitor the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic and restrictions on the event. Updated entry regulations will be released with further details around restrictions closer to the time.
