Dear Kansas Wrestling Community,
The Ohio Tournament of Champions, which began in 1993, is one of the top youth wrestling tournaments in the United States and is one
of just three events, along with the Reno Worlds and the USA Folkstyle Nationals, that forms the "Ultimate Triple Crown of Youth Wrestling."
The Ohio TofC offers competition for all Age Groups, including high school graduates and Seniors/Veterans and also offers Girls Divisions as well.
The Individual Tournament consistently draws 2000 kids, representing 30 States and the Dual Meet portion has grown from 80 Teams, three
years ago, to 140 Teams this past year.
Past participants in the Individual Tournament have included: Bo Bassett, Marcus Blaze, PJ Duke, Jon Reader, Vincent Robinson, Kyle Snyder,
Yanni Diakamiholis, Carter Starocci, Aaron Brooks, Logan Stieber, Lance Palmer, Jesse Mendez, David Carr, Caleb Henson, Trent Hidlay,
Lachlan McNeil, Real Woods, Ryan Crookham, Rocco Welch, Bryce Andonian, Rocky Elam, Shane Griffith, Luke Pletcher, Mark Hall, Eric Tannenbaum,
Dustin Schlatter, J. Jaggers, Michael Poeta, Johnni DiJulius, Keegan Bassett and Jax Forrest.
Thanks to a generous sponsor, the Ohio Tournament of Champions is offering four States, that have not sent Dual Meet Teams in the past,
the opportunity to enter a Team in our Dual Meet competition, in any of our Age Divisions, for just the $100 initial deposit fee and half price on
a second Team, in an additional Age Division. This offer is a savings of $650-$750 for one Team and an additional $375-$425 on a second Team.
However, this offer is only good thru January 31, 2026.
Future Ohio TofC dates are: April 17-18, 2027 - April 22-23, 2028 - April 21--22, 2029
Here is the link to the Official Ohio TofC site, which also includes links to Individual Registration, Dual Meet Registration, Past Results (since 1996)
and much more:
