We invite your youth wrestler(s) to participate in our 20th Annual Fear the Bird™ in 2025. Approval for our request of January 25, 2025, won’t be made known until the high school wrestling season has been finalized. Please return to this page after November 1, 2024.
The format will be determined at a later time. We have used both mat assignment and bullpen formats. Both have been successful! Our goal is to offer a safe environment for the youth wrestlers.
Be prepared for the weather and use your judgment to ensure you arrive on time. We do not give refunds. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
We offer a “no-tears” portion for wrestlers in PreK & Kindergarten. This means all competitors receive a gold medal and the ref will raise both competitors’ arms to declare the winner. This is our way to introduce the wrestler and his/her family to the tournament series.
Our concession stand will offer warm breakfast items followed by a robust warm lunch as well as other common concession items. We will once again conduct an all-cash raffle. Proceeds support functions of the Marshall Wrestling Club including a senior scholarship program. We thank you and your family for supporting wrestling.
We respect your time and run a smooth tournament. Marshall High School wrestlers serve as our referees. They are under the watch of a head official with WIAA officiating credentials.
We look forward to seeing you in 2025!
Registration information will follow once the date is determined and approved.
We no longer accept walk-ins and have moved to a pre-registration-only tournament.
Be on time and plan accordingly per the weather.
USA Card required. Purchase on-line BEFORE our event.
