2021 USA Wrestling World Team Trials Heading to Nebraska

USA Wrestling’s 2021 Senior World Team Trials will be held at the Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska, starting September 11.

This event will determine the U.S. team that will compete in October’s Senior World Championships in Oslo, Norway. The meet will feature 10 World Championship weight classes in men’s freestyle, women’s freestyle and Greco-Roman.

There could be some weight classes which are not contested in Lincoln depending on the results from the Olympic Summer Games in Tokyo and based upon the decision of Olympic medalists whether they will compete at the worlds.

USA Wrestling is partnering with the Lincoln Convention and Visitors Bureau and the MWC Wrestling Academy to host this event.

“Pinnacle Bank Arena is honored to welcome USA Wrestling’s 2021 Senior World Team Trials,” said Tom Lorenz, general manager of the venue. “Coming right after the spectacle that is the Tokyo Summer Olympics, we are honored that USA Wrestling is bringing this prestigious two-day, four-session event to Nebraska’s Capitol City. Lincoln is second to none as a destination for major sporting events where great facilities intersect with a really knowledgeable fan base.”
