USA Wrestling Memberships for 2023-24 are now available for purchase.
I am pleased to announce that FAWA decided to NOT change any of its prices to our members for the 2023-24 season.
Also, if you did not have a USA Membership or a Club Charter, starting today, your new Membership or Charter will be effective as soon as you buy it thru August 31, 2024.
If you have a Membership for the 2022-23 season, it will expire on August 31, 2023, so please, starting August 21, 2023, renew your Membership to avoid having a gap in coverage. This is especially true because those who require a Background Check often encounter a few days or even a couple of weeks delay in having it approved.
Further those who will be at least 18 years old on or before August 31, 2024, are required to complete SafeSport before they can buy their Membership.
If you have any questions, please contact me at teamflorida2021@gmail.com.
