We’re excited to announce that Folkstyle Wrestling Season is officially underway, and our first event kicks off on October 5, 2025, at Kalani High School.

Membership Requirement

All coaches and wrestlers must hold a current USA Wrestling membership to participate—no exceptions. A Limited Folkstyle membership is acceptable for athletes. Please make sure your membership is current before registering.

Big Change for 2025: USA Bracketing

This year, all Oahu Wrestling League (OWL) events will be run through USA Bracketing. Registration is now open, and we strongly encourage you to register early in case you need help navigating this new system.

  • Get started here: USA Bracketing User Guide – Flipbook

  • Register here: USA Bracketing – Upcoming Events

Important: All registrations must be completed online.
We will no longer be doing onsite registration.

If you miss the preregistration deadline, late registration will remain open online with an adjusted fee. Onsite weigh-ins will still take place for late entries and 2nd session participants.

Event Format

  • Kalani, Waianae, and Pearl City: Scramble events, guaranteeing each athlete at least 2 matches.

  • Divisions: Set by birth year with restrictions. Athletes may wrestle up, but not down.

Jr Officials Event

A special middle school competition for wrestlers 8th grade and under.

Who’s Next Challenge

This signature event is primarily a youth competition with unique age divisions and weight classes.
New this year: High school showcase matches!

  • Open to all high school state placers.
