USA Wrestling is pleased to announce the creation of TheWomensMat.com, a complete guide to women's wrestling.

"It's a one-stop shop, a one-stop location for anyone involved in women's wrestling to go for information," U.S. Women's Freestyle Coach Terry Steiner said.

This website will provide exactly what women's wrestling has been missing, a central location that has everything related to the sport.

"It really should be an all-inclusive site," said Steiner. "It has information on camps, competitions, and technical advice.

Visit www.thewomensmat.com today to find out what all the fuss is about!

TheWomensMat.com features a variety of content including blogs from top female wrestlers, an elite access section, and current news.

Get online now and read recent blogs by 2004 Olympic bronze medalist Patricia Miranda, two-time World bronze medalists Katie Downing and Sally Roberts, and Marcie Van Dusen, who recently defeated unbeaten Saori Yoshida of Japan. More blogs will be posted on a regular basis. The nation's best wrestlers will share advice with young athletes.

There is also information regarding wrestling opportunities for competitors of all ages including college programs, training camps, high school associations, and resident programs.

Not only will the site give wrestlers more resources, but it also provides a better idea of what U.S. women's freestyle wrestling is all about.

"We are really trying to include everything: camps, colleges, sponsors, and more," Steiner said. "We want people to understand how the program and how the system works. This website really lays it out well."

Continued updates are planned for the website in the coming weeks and months to improve an already excellent product.

Another exciting feature is the elite access section, which provides scouting resources such as video for senior-level wrestlers.

"Another page is for the national team to access scouting information and video, which is a really important feature," said Steiner.

TheWomensMat.com was designed by Danielle Hobeika, and the elite access section was programmed by Daniel Rubenstein.

Shannyn Gillespie, the USOEC head freestyle wrestling coach, will oversee the website.

If you know anybody involved in women's wrestling at any level, tell them about TheWomensMat.com.
