Spectators are welcome to come and check out the competition during the tournament for a $5 donation to the club.
The annual San Diego wrestling weekend draws dozens of wrestlers from New York, Chicago, Philadelphia as well as San Francisco and Los Angeles. The three days of wrestling begins Thursday, Feb.16 at 7 p.m. with the club’s regular Thursday night practice and continues with a skills and rules clinic Friday night and then concludes with the tournament on Saturday afternoon.
Now in its 14th season, The SDWC – also known as the Bulldogs – is San Diego’s only year-round wrestling club focusing on the adult wrestler. The club maintains diversity in its membership and all weights, ages and skill levels are represented. The SDWC is always looking to increase their membership and invites those interested in a good cardio workout as well as learning the sport of wrestling to come down and check out their practices which are held Thursday nights from 7 to 9 p.m. and Sunday afternoons from 4 to 7 p.m. Both practices are held in the main auditorium of The Center located at 3909 Centre Street in the heart of Hillcrest. The club is sanctioned by USA Wrestling, the national body for Olympic style wrestling.
The Bulldogs also participate in other freestyle wrestling tournaments including the annual Don Jung Memorial Wrestling Tournament in San Francisco and recently participated in the Sin City Shootout Wrestling Tournament in Las Vegas.
