FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. How do I qualify to be considered for Team NC at the National Tournament?

Here are the ways to qualify for the team this year:

A. The State Champion and True Second place finisher at the NC USA State FS/GR Championship at the weight and style you competed at in that tournament will be guaranteed two of the six spots that North Carolina is allotted per weight class and style at Fargo.

B. Qualify by placing in the top 4 of a USA Wrestling Regional Tournament or Top 8 of any UWW National Tournament at any weight. Regional/UWW qualifiers do notcount against our State allotment.

C. You MAY petition for membership on Team NC any time before the set deadline. The Petition fee is $50 if you did not wrestle in the qualifying event (either State Championships or SE Regional). Wrestlers who participate in one of these two events and do not earn a slot on the National Team can petition WITHOUT A PETITION FEE. Petition slots are subject to availability. You will need to send a letter explaining the reason for the petition to nc.nationalteams@gmail.com to be forwarded to the committee.

2. Once I have qualified to be on Team NC by winning state or placing second at state or I decide I would like to be considered for one of the additional 4 national team spots at each weight and style to go to Nationals what do I need to do?

Fill out all the necessary paperwork online and submit it with a $100.00 deposit to NC USA Wrestling.

3. What are the deadlines to make my decision?

All paperwork (Will be submitted online with registration) and deposits have to be submitted NO LATER than Friday, June 4th, 2021. (NO EXCEPTIONS) FINAL Payment is due no later than July 1, 2021. (NO EXCEPTIONS) If you miss this deadline you will lose your spot on the team and the next alternate will be added.(Please note that no payments will be accepted after this date or before you depart).

4. Why are these deadlines so early and no exceptions allowed?

We have to have time to get all uniforms ordered so we can get them back before our departure. We have to secure and finalize travel plans and accommodations as well as making sure we have enough coaching and supervision for all participants.

5. If I decide not to attend after I have submitted my deposit can I get my deposit back?

All deposits are non-refundable. We require the deposit because we also have to start paying deposits, and in some instances, we have to prepay for things we use during the trip in full. The deposit helps the organization offset some of the cost we have to pay. Some of the costs we incur are transportation, uniforms, lodging and food during training camps, room and board in Fargo, and the tournament entry fees. Many of these expenses are due before we leave North Carolina. The only exception would be if the trip was cancelled by TEAM NC or USA WRESTLING, then your deposit would be refunded in full.

6. How much will it cost to attend Freestyle and Greco Nationals?

COST TO ATTEND JUNIOR/CADET NATIONALS

$1500.00 for both styles

7. Can my child spend the night in our hotel instead of with the team?

NO! They are there as part of team North Carolina and you have entrusted them into our care. We have nightly team meetings, morning roll call and weigh-ins, etc. Our past success has been built on the team concept. They are there not only to wrestle but also to support their teammates. We feel it is important for them to have the total team experience. Our goal is to provide a safe environment for all our wrestlers, so staying with the team at all times is expected.  We appreciate your cooperation with this!

8. Can I take my child with me when he is finished wrestling?

Yes, but only after they have been released by the Team Leader or the Head Coach into your care and you have officially signed them out. They also have to officially check out of the hotel. We will not release any wrestler to anyone other than a parent without prior consent!
