VISION, VALUES, and PURPOSE
For the past twenty-five years, the NCWA has remained committed to a vision that has at its core increased leadership opportunities, expanded wrestling competition, inspired community
involvement and academic excellence for all student athletes.

Founded in 1997 as a 501(c) 3 non-profit association, the NCWA was designed to fill a gap in the wrestling community created by outside influences, including budgetary cutbacks and
restrictive governmental legislation that forced institutions to drop their NCAA wrestling
programs. Although participation interest among students remained high, many schools were
forced to offer fewer athletic opportunities. The NCWA was born out of a mission to provide
additional opportunities to the increasing number of high school seniors searching for both
academic excellence and wrestling competition at the college level.

The NCWA is the youngest of the four collegiate wrestling governing bodies, which include the
NCAA, NAIA and NJCAA. The NCWA stands uniquely as the only collegiate governing body
devoted exclusively to the success of wrestling. We serve as a spawning ground for new
wrestling programs, offering opportunities for students to experience wrestling at all skill levels. 

In addition to athletic departments, the NCWA recognizes programs developed under alternative administrative bodies, including student services and sports club departments. 

The NCWA is composed of volunteers committed to helping our young people accomplish their
goals and dreams. To reach for excellence in everything they do. Through athletic
endeavor, academic excellence, team leadership responsibilities, NCWA student-athletes graduate college ready to meet the demands of a competitive world.
They emerge from college equipped through their academic achievements and athletic
success to take the competition to the mat, score and emerge as a champion.

We encourage you to take the next step in expanding the way your school
sees student involvement in athletics. 

Join us in changing lives.
