Spectators are welcome to come and check out the wrestling competition during the tournament for a $5 donation to the club.

The annual San Diego wrestling weekend draws dozens of wrestlers from across the West Coast. The three days of wrestling begins Thursday April 21 with the club’s regular Thursday night practice which starts at 7 p.m., continues with a skills and rules clinic Friday night April 22 then concludes with the tournament on Saturday afternoon.

Now celebrating its eighteenth season, the SDWC 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 freestyle wrestling to come down and check out their practices which are held on Thursday nights from 7-9 p.m. and on Sunday afternoons from 4-7 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.

In addition to their regular practices, the club hosts fundraisers, BBQ’s and events throughout the year to bring together folks interested in the sport of wrestling. The Bulldogs also participate in other freestyle wrestling tournaments including those in San Francisco and the recent Sin City Shootout in Las Vegas.
