ABOUT COWA

For five decades, the Central Oklahoma Wrestling Association has proudly hosted one of the nation’s most respected youth wrestling tournaments, the United States Junior Open Championships (USJOC).

Now celebrating our 50th year, the USJOC continues to bring together young athletes from across the country to compete, grow, and build lifelong memories on and off the mat.

Our mission is simple yet powerful: to promote and develop interest in athletic endeavor, sportsmanship, and teamwork in youthful participants. Through dedication, discipline, and respect for the sport, we aim to inspire the next generation of wrestlers to reach their fullest potential.

The Central Oklahoma Wrestling Association remains committed to preserving the spirit of wrestling while providing an elite, family-friendly event that showcases the heart and grit of youth athletes nationwide.
