Hello,

Kentucky USA wrestling is looking to recruit new mat officials for the upcoming season.  High school wrestlers, you are able to officiate.  Officiating is alot of fun and gives you a change to be active in the sport (if you are not a current athlete).  If you are over 18, Kentucky USA wrestling will be able to take care of your membership fee.  However, you will need to obtain a background check.  If you are under 18, you don't have to worry about getting a background check.  Wrestlers, you will be able to wrestle and officiate at these tournaments.  I have attached a copy of the current schedule for this season.  If you are interested, please personal message me or send me an e-mail ([email protected]) so I can get you signed up for tournaments this season.  We will have a clinic at each event for both wrestlers and officials to go over rules and situations.

If you are also interested in officiating freestyle and/or greco as well, please let me know.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me and let me know.

Thanks
