Joe Baranik, founder of the Award Winning Pennsylvania Wrestling Newsmagazine (PWN) in conjunction with the following nine wrestling organizations and media across America have declared December 5, 2011 the first annual National Wrestling Day.  

PWN, Beat The Streets, Riot Sports Marketing, National Wrestling Coaches Association, Takedown Wrestling Radio & TV, USA Wrestling, National Wrestling Hall of Fame & Museum, World Wrestling Resource, and the National Collegiate Wrestling Association are supporting this effort.

These groups are all thrilled to get the “Wrestling Season” started from elementary leagues, middle school and high school grapplers, collegiate wrestling, women’s wrestling and our Olympic level Team USA.  

It is time to roll out the mats and “Rumble and Tumble” from Maine to Florida and New York to California.  

We want to let the public know ‘Wrestling Season Has Arrived’ and will continue until the state and national tournaments in March 2012 and the Olympic Team Trials in April 2012.
