Below is a quick-reference summary of the selection process for the NJ National Duals Teams.  Please reference the flyer for complete details including the points system that will be used for ranking criteria.

How do I qualify for Team NJ?

• Win the state Ranking Tournament on 4/21, which is our national duals team selection tournament
  • Boys 14U and 16U:  1st place winner is guaranteed a spot on the team to wrestle both styles (potential for a Greco alternate)
  • Girls 14U, Girls 16U, and Boys Junior:  1st place winner is guaranteed a spot on the team

What is the Seeding Criteria?

A points system will be used as criteria for seeding the Team Selection Tournament.  (The flyer describes the point system in detail.)  Teams are not hand-picked:  all athletes will be seeded and selected based on these criteria.

1. Placement in Fargo 2023 (Freestyle and Greco count as separate points)
2. Placement at Journeyman, Vegas Open, Women's Open
3. Prior year (2023) placement in Northeast Regions, NJ Freestyle State Tournament, or NJ Greco State Tournament
4. NJSIAA Top-8 placement in state tournament
5. Placing in developmental tournaments 3/24, 4/7 and 4/14 -- wrestlers are required to attend at least one developmental tournament

What are the costs and the due dates?

Deposit of $500 (check or credit card) is due to hold a position on the team.  If the winner does not reserve a spot on the team by the deadline, the next runner up is notified:

• 1st place — at the conclusion of the tournament on 4/21
• 2nd place — due by 4/23
• 3rd place — due by 4/25
• 4th place — due by 4/27

If in any event the top 4 are unable to attend, a team member will be selected by the International Council members using the seeding criteria  above.  Also, in the event a full team of every weight class cannot be filled, we will not send a team to the Duals.  A decision will be made by 5/12/24, and parents will be notified.
