The West Bend Wildcats is a youth wrestling club for boys and girls ages 4 through 8th grade.  You don't have to live in West Bend, nor do you have to go to WB public schools to be a part of this great wrestling club.

Our club is run by volunteer coaches and a volunteer board with a focus on teaching the fundamentals of wrestling, building character and responsibility. 

The season typically starts the 1st Tuesday in December through the State Tournament in late March.  HOWEVER, this year we will begin the season over a month earlier to get more mat time!! We will begin the season in November, 2022. More details to come!

New to wrestling??  Come out on Tuesday-Thursday, during the 1st week of practices to see how great this sport truly is!  

The great thing about wrestling is that you are not tied down to going to every tournament that's offered.  You and your wrestler get to choose which tournaments to take part in.  These range in distance from West Bend (as close as Kewaskum to as far as another state) and skill level for each wrestler.  Our Head Coach has a list of tournaments in the area that will help you navigate which tournament(s) are best suited for your wrestler!  We may also have some Duals (like how the High School Wrestlers do it) wherein, we would really like to have ALL Wildcats present to partake in the dual and support eachother!  These are amazing to be a part of and really build on the team aspect of wrestling (since it is often an individual sport at tournaments).

Group Breakdown:

All of these breakdowns are dependent on skill level and years of experience and are subject to change.

• Little Cats - 4yrs up to 2nd/3rd grade 
• Big Cats - 2nd-4th grades 
• Intermediate - 3rd grade-6th grade
• Advanced - 5th -8th grade

Registration costs: Only $225 for the entire year!  Wrestlers practicing one day per week  will have a significant discounted rate of only $150 (little cats and wrestlers who can only make one night per wk); two days per week and/or three days per week will be $225. For families with 2 or more kids there is a $25 discount per child after the first wrestler's full amount.  There is a 3% transaction fee charged by Sports Engine when signing up your child(ren).  

Registration Time:  Want to save some money on dues?  Then register early!  Early registration opens on 9/1/22 and runs until 9/15/22 at 11:59pm.  You will get a $25 discount on registration fees!

If you register midnight, 9/16/22 and beyond, you will have to pay the full dues (seen above).  There will be no exceptions to this, so please go in early and register well ahead of 9/15/22 if you want to save.

EVERY wrestler also MUST purchase each year a  "USA Card" BEFORE registering with the West Bend Wildcats.                 https://www.usawmembership.com/login
