Dear Wrestlers, Coaches, and Parents,
This national qualifier will recognize the top three wrestlers from each weight class. These wrestlers will earn a spot on Team Arizona to compete at the 2025 16U & 18U (Junior) National Championships in Fargo, North Dakota.
If a wrestler qualifies for Fargo through this event, their trip package fee will include:
✔ Flights

✔ Ground transportation
✔ Team gear package
If a wrestler did not compete or qualify at the Red Mountain National Qualifier, they can still qualify through:
Western Regionals
Freestyle & Greco State
Other regional tournaments (e.g., Southern Plains)
However, wrestlers qualifying through these alternate events will not receive a plane ticket as part of their package and will need to arrange their own travel to Fargo.
To officially secure your spot on Team Arizona, you must:
Verify your qualification – You must have placed top 3 in the March 1, 2025, National Qualifier or another approved qualifying event.
