Masters is the term used to identify wrestlers who are 25 years and older. There is also a subdivision of Masters which is referred to as Veterans. Veterans are wrestlers that are 35-70 years old and is not to be confused with people who have served in the military.

 

At CORE, we will focus on Freestyle & Greco for all Masters practices, as there are limited to no Folkstyle tournaments in this age group. However, if you prefer to train in Folkstyle, just bring a partner who wants to train in that style.

 

The Masters division is split up into 5 age groups designated by one of the first 5 letters of the alphabet: A, B, C, D, and E.

Div. A: Ages 20-29
Div. B: Ages 30-43
Div. C: Ages 44-52
Div. D: Ages 53-61
Div. E: Ages 62-70

Within those 5 divisions, there are 7 weight classes.
