Where South Carolina’s Future Champions Are Built

At SCYWL, we’re here for one reason—to give South Carolina youth wrestlers a platform to rise, compete, and grow into elite athletes and leaders. We’re more than just tournaments. We are the heartbeat of youth wrestling in the Palmetto State. Every event we host is rooted right here in South Carolina, giving our kids a true home advantage. Our mission is to provide a structured, high-energy, and professionally run environment where young athletes—beginners to advanced—can develop their skills, test their grit, and chase greatness. SCYWL is a league for the kids, built by passionate coaches, dedicated parents, and a statewide community that believes in the power of wrestling to change lives. We promote discipline, respect, hard work, and heart—values that extend far beyond the mat.

 Important Participation Requirement:
In order to compete in our prestigious Novice State Championships or SCYWL State Tournament, wrestlers must be residents of South Carolina. This league was built to serve our kids, in our communities, and our championships are reserved for those who call this state home. With every tournament, every handshake, and every hard-fought match, we’re not just growing wrestlers—we’re building future warriors, leaders, and a South Carolina wrestling legacy that can’t be ignored.
