About PJW
PA Junior Wrestling is a non-profit organization providing youth wrestlers 15 years of age and younger an opportunity to participate in the sport of wrestling. We provide a developmental program for our youth while contributing to the development of the moral, physical, mental, and emotional attitudes of young people as they develop toward adulthood.
State Championships
PJW has grown to 2 State Championship Tournament Series. The first is the Junior High Series. The second is the Youth Series for wrestlers age 12 and under.
About Area 9
Area IX offers a progressive series of tournaments. Each wrestler has equal opportunity to progress through structured events, starting with competition in the Area IX Qualifying Tournament. The Area Tournament will provide competition for each wrestler to earn a spot to advance to the PJW State Championship events.
Donating Back
Proceeds from these non-profit events are given back to the hosting programs for the purpose of developing their local wrestling programs.
