Proving that elite competition can and should be fun!
"Kids grow strongest when they learn to bend with the wind, not break against it. Freestyle and Greco wrestling teach us discipline, courage, and heart. These styles sharpen every move, build resilience, and create a roadmap from local mats to national stages. By chasing the 14U Maryland National Team and competing at USA Kids Nationals, you're choosing to test your limits, embrace teamwork, and prove to yourself that hard work and dedication can turn a dream into a champion's mindset."
- Jason Kiessling, Maryland National Team Director
The Kids Maryland National Team peaks twice per year. The first is our winter classic event where the State competes against nearby competitor states (PA, NJ, and VA) for the right to wear the local crown. We do this each year in January at the Mason Dixon Duals.
Fast forward to the late spring/summer, we then train to compete at the 14U USA National Wrestling Duals. We max out the number of athletes we are permitted to bring and field a strong team! Lastly, we cap the season off at the USA Kids National Championships in the summer.
