Mark your calendars to attend!

Registration forms for DWC will be available. In addition, we will have DWC apparel forms and samples of 2012/13 apparel items.  Singlet samples will be available if you choose to purchase a new DWC singlet. DWC will also offer a SWAP meet to sell/buy gently used wrestling items. Items may include DWC singlets, practice singlets, shoes, headgear, etc.  Please attach a notecard with your name and price on each item. If your item is sold, we will collect the money and card.  At the end of the swap meet, you can collect your money or unsold gear. ***if you are selling your DWC singlet from last season, we are suggesting a sale price of $25***
