We, the officers of the Michigan Club Wrestling team, are glad you found our site! We would love to help and have you join our club, so we have compiled answers to some of our most common questions below. 

Do I have to join by a certain date? 

Nope! We don't do tryouts and most of our competitions are individual tournaments, so we will happily accept new members at any point in the year. Additionally, we really want to make sure we are as accessible as possible, so you can test things out with a few free practices before deciding whether or not to become a member. Please reach out to the club if you think you might be interested.

Do I have to Compete? Do I have to attend a certain amount of practices? 

If you do not wish to compete you do not need to and we do not require attendance at practices. We understand that members have many different reasons for joining the club and are also very busy at times, so after club dues are paid you can show up to as many or as few practices and competitions as they'd like. 

Is there a Women's Team? 

Yes, we are a co-ed club! During the 2021-22 season, we had Michigan's first competitive women's team, as well as our first two women's national qualifiers! All of our practices are joint practices, so both the men's and women's sides of the team practice at the same times described below. We are excited to continue our recent success with the women's team and we are looking forward to growing the women's side of the team even bigger this year! 

What are the costs? 

2024-2025 Season Dues:

• $250 for Men 

• $200 for Women 

  • • Unfortunately, fewer competitions are available for women wrestlers, and is why there is a separate dues.

• Includes All Practices + All Competitions  

  • Dues are due Oct 1st or after a wrestler's 3rd practice

    • Whichever comes second.

      • If you join after October 1st, or have not yet been to 3 practices, then your dues are due after your third practice.

    • Wrestlers are not allowed to participate in practice or competition after these deadlines if they have not paid dues.
