How to Make a National Team

    Team Selection Criteria
    Tony Rotundo Media Group
    Senior National Team

    Teams in each discipline are determined by placings at the World Team Trials (also known as Final X) in non-Olymic years. In Olympic years, the team is determined by placings at the Olympic Team Trials. The top 3 ranked athletes at each weight and each style receives a monthly financial stipend from USA Wrestling based on rank.
