Discussion Topic: question about competition
Tony Jameson added to this discussion on August 10, 2015

I am curious to see if anyone has any knowledge of competing past college. I've tried looking into it but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Say i wanted to join the world team. Obviously i can't walk up to the coach and ask. So where would I begin? Are there certain qualifiers or restrictions allowing/not allowing anyone from going down that path if I have never competed in an international event? Thanks for your time

Tony,

I'm sure you will have a lot of people on this site that can help guide you. We would all like to see u compete, it shouldn't be difficult, you have no age issue, health issues may hsve to be cleared prior to competing if applicable. Getting your USA wrestling card is quick and easy, may be contact an OTC and inquire but if you feel that itch and your healthy DO IT! Take your shot, it will take some time to get there, stay positive and focused on the goal. let no one talk u out of it! Best of luck keep us updated.

Tony,
I inquired about this for you with some folks who are "in the know" and I got a response.
Email me at jim.behrens@gmail.com and I will forward the response to you.

BTW, you were probably the most difficult wrestler that I ever had to officiate. I never had a clue what you were going to do next.

Thanks for the kind words bill truly appreciated. And Jim the funny thing is that we were probably thinking the same thing during my matches hahaha I was certainly different. I don't know where the push is coming from really. I've never had nearly as much motivation (embarrassingly stated light years ahead of my college days) I'm going to win the 2020 Olympics I just more or less needed set in the right direction thank you!
