2025 Senior World Team Trials Procedures now posted online
USA Wrestling has posted the
2025 Senior World Team Trials Procedures
on its website, TheMat.com.
These procedures will be used to determine the U.S. athletes who will represent the United States at the 2025 Senior World Championships in Zagreb, Croatia, September 13-21.
USA Wrestling Team Selection Criteria
There is a separate set of procedures for each of the Olympic disciplines, men's freestyle, women's freestyle and Greco-Roman.
These procedures were developed and approved by the Sport Committee for each of the disciplines, then received final approval from USA Wrestling's Executive Committee.
There will be a substantial change in the Greco-Roman procedures. The 2025 U.S. Senior World Team in Greco-Roman will be determined at the 2025 U.S. Open in Las Vegas in April.
In the men's freestyle and women's freestyle procedures, the 2025 U.S. Senior World Team will be determined at Final X, which is scheduled for June. There are changes in the procedures for men’s freestyle and women’s freestyle from recent years, so athletes and coaches in these disciplines are asked to read them closely.
