The Souderton Area Youth Wrestling Association (SAYWA) was established in 1974. The organization has earned several championships over the years and has graduated wrestlers to the Junior High and High School programs that have gone on to place and win at the Pennsylvania State level. SAYWA averages 100 wrestlers each season.

SAYWA belongs to the Inter County Wrestling League (ICWL) , a highly competitive and organized league that includes local teams such as Central Bucks, Pennridge, Upper Perk, North Penn, Boyertown and many teams down the main line. In all, 45 teams in the ICWL with an estimated 3,500 wrestlers. The ICWL is one of the largest youth wrestling leagues in the country. Wrestlers participating in ICWL events range in age from K to 8th grade. All matches in the ICWL are set up based on wrestlers age, weight, experience, and skill level. This makes the matches fair and allows kids to learn and grow at pace that fits them.

Season practices begin in November. League competitions this year will start in January and run through February.  We also compete in several tournaments throughout the season including our own Big Red tournament which was established in 1990. Optional practices continue in the postseason for wrestlers who will be competing in postseason open tournaments or for wrestlers who simply want to sharpen their skills.  We keep the SAWYA community informed throughout the season.
