2021 National Duals CANCELED!

We hope to resume this tournament in 2022, Super Bowl weekend. In 2020, nearly 1500 of the best grade school wrestlers in the country traveled to Wildwood, NJ to battle for a team championship in the two traditional age groups: Elementary School and Middle School Divisions. The weekend started with Pool wrestling, with pool winners advancing to the Championship bracket and all other teams wrestling in a consolation bracket. All ES and MS teams began wrestling on Friday, with Elementary School starting in the morning, Middle School starting in the afternoon, We continued all day on both Saturday and Sunday with similar split / staggered start times by division. 7 to 10 dual meets are planned for each team in both ES and MS divisions.
