HOW DO I QUALIFY FOR THE NATIONAL RECRUITING SHOWCASE? 

All High School state champions and National Prep champions (any year) automatically qualify for the High School National Recruiting Showcase for both boys and girls (they would not need to attend a qualifier). All previous High School state champions and National Prep champions MUST PRE-REGISTER FOR THE NATIONAL RECRUITING SHOWCASE BY MARCH 1 to guarantee their spot. 

High School State champions are defined as High School state association sanctioned state champions for boys in Folkstyle, and both state association sanctioned champions and recognized unofficial state champions for girls in Folkstyle.

USA Wrestling will be hosting Eight (8) National Recruiting Showcase Qualifiers held in strategic locations across the nation during the 10-day period of March 12-21. Each National Recruiting Showcase Qualifier is open to all high school athletes from any state, giving wrestlers an option to compete in the most convenient location. The top five place winners in each weight class in the eight qualifiers will also earn a spot in the High School National Recruiting Showcase.
