Wisconsin Wrestling Federation - Kids Folkstyle Regional TournamentSaturday, March 13, 2010All RF high school wrestlers are expected to help at this tournament and give back to those that seek to be in your shoes some day.

The top two place winners in each age and weight classes qualify for the state tournament. All wrestlers born 1995 and after are encouraged to participate.

River Falls Annual Open Freestyle Tournament
Sunday, March 14, 2010
For those born 1996 or earlier, this is a fast-paced freestyle tournament at a great venue in the River Falls High School. A lot of people and kids over analyze the style and method called “freestyle” wrestling. Albeit this is an extreme simplification, essentially if you can take someone down, then you are qualified and ready for freestyle action. A pin is still a pin. A big change is that wrestlers try to win two of the three periods rather than accumulating points throughout the match. For many kids it is a nice departure from folk-style wrestling and a taste of summer wrestling opportunities throughout the region. Even if you are not participating, it is a great opportunity to see this style of wrestling as a spectator.

River Falls Days Takedown Tournament
Saturday, July 10, 2010
This is a very fast paced, relaxed tournament (if you can imagine). As the name implies, there are no near-fall points and is very fast paced. The last couple years, we had some truly phenomenal talent come to this great tournament. State champions, regional champions, and even some international competitors. They all came for wrestling, although the free hot dogs following the event were pretty good also!
