British Wrestling will be seeking to bring the squad together on a regular basis and to ensure that these young athletes are given every chance to perform in the international arena, with the intention of developing the next generation of British performance athletes.

The next stages in their journey will be a training day on 21st November in Manchester, a competition for female athletes in Helsinki (late-November) and a competition for male athletes in Estonia (early-December).

The next review of squad membership will be following the English Junior Championships (April 2010) when each athlete on the squad will be reviewed and there will be the opportunity for new athletes to be considered for the squad – primarily depending on their results at the English Junior Championships.
