Sanctioning an Event with ISWA/USAW REQUIREMENTS

The Indiana State Wrestling Association sanctions all ISWA/USAW Events.  Note in order to Sanction an event a club must attend the ISWA's Annual Meeting.

Please note the ISWA hosts an annual meeting the second Sunday in September every year.  At this meeting clubs will receive important news from USAW/ISWA.  We ask all clubs to attend this meeting.  Those clubs wishing to sanction an event are required to bid the dates at this meeting to avoid conflicting dates with clubs in surrounding areas.  

USAW Bracketing & Trackwrestling trainings are offered along with valuable things your club will need to know for the upcoming season.  If you would like further information about the detail of these meetings or wish to sanction an event you must have a club representative in attendance. Thank you for your cooperation.
