The event is scheduled to be held at the Baird Center in Milwaukee. The local organizing committee is the Wisconsin Wrestling Federation, USA Wrestling’s state association in Wisconsin. The event is supported by Sports Milwaukee.
Known as the Junior National Duals, the event features boys teams from USA Wrestling state associations competing in dual meet competition in freestyle and Greco-Roman
Wisconsin becomes just the third state to host the Junior National Duals, which were created in 1991 and held in Wheaton, Ill. The state of Illinois has hosted five times. Oklahoma first hosted the event in Lawton, Okla. in 1994, and conducted the event 28 times.
Milwaukee becomes the ninth city to host the event, which featured five cities in Oklahoma (Lawton, Oklahoma City, Edmond, Enid, Tulsa) and three cities in Illinois (Wheaton, Park Forest, Edwardsville).
The Junior National Duals for girls, which was created in 2005 in Fargo, N.D., was held alongside the boys in Tulsa from 2018-2023, but will not be included alongside the boys in Milwaukee. The Junior National Duals for girls will move and be held alongside the 16U and 14U National Duals for girls in Indiana in 2025. … more at … https://www.themat.com/news/2024/august/30/usa-wrestling-awards-its-popular-junior-national-duals-to-milwaukee-wis-from-2025-2028
