GUIDELINES

If you are a prospective student athlete (PSA), you must adhere to the following guidelines

Won at least one match at a USAW World or Olympic Team Trials

A PSA must live within 250 miles of an RTC to participate in practice. If there is no RTC within the boundaries listed above, the PSA may join the closest RTC to his residence by applying for an exemption through USA Wrestling.

A PSA may not practice at a regional training site during that PSA’s traditional high school wrestling season. Dates are determined by the PSA’s State Activities Association.

A PSA may belong to more than one RTC

Only the PSA or USA Wrestling can pay for a prospect to attend RTC practice

A PSA that is graduated from high school and is taking a year off before matriculating to college, may practice during the traditional folkstyle season with a RTC.

Once a PSA has signed a National Letter of Intent, the 250 miles radius rule is no longer applicable and that PSA may attend the RTC of their choice.
