Buying your USA card in your home state will benefit wrestlers of 

all ages in Kentucky by helping to fund team camps, trips, National 

events, and many more. It also protects you. When you buy a card 

out of state and misplace it, we have no way of verifying you ever 

bought it. This means you have to buy a new card to compete. Your 

USA card for this year is now available to purchase through 

Kentucky USAW before those early out of state tournaments.

Again this year all KY USA Wrestling cards need to be Purchased and 

printed from online! There will be NO cards sent to clubs or given 

out at tournaments. Exception: (Middle School League Cards must be requested and sent by the KY USAW Director only). USA 

Wrestling cards will need to be purchased online. All cards will be 

printed online also. If an athlete plans to purchase their card at 

a tournament, they will need to supply an email address so their 

membership confirmation can be sent to be able to go online and 

print their USAW card. An additional fee of $5.00 will be added to 

the purchase price.

Also:

1. If your card is lost, you can reprint it online at NO cost. 

  I suggest the online cards are laminated, as they will be on 

  regular printer paper, and this will keep them from any water damage.

2. September 1, 2008, (2008-2009 season) background 

  checks were made mandatory for all coaches, directors, officers, 

  pairing officials, mat officials, and anyone over 18 working with 

  wrestlers. Cost is included with membership and will be valid for a 2

  year period.

When registering online, your background check will need to be completed first. You will need to click on the background check tab, select the Kentucky USAW Association to avoid having to pay again.  After varification by email that you have passed the background check. You will pay for your membership card and your background check at the same time. Coaches
