The Desert Area Wrestling Group is in running a trial season in 2012 in order to determine if there would be enough interest to start an association within the next few years in the high desert. The area covered by this group would include, but not necessarily be limited to: Palmdale, Quartz Hill, Lancaster, Ridgecrest, Boron, Edwards AFB, Barstow, Victorville, Hesperia, Phelan, and Littlerock. Teams from outside the area are certainly welcome to attend and join our tournaments. We have traditionally hosted our tournaments and sanctioned through SCWA; however, we are now attempting to run as an independent group. That said, our tournaments will be smaller and a bit friendlier.
Our schedule will include the following tournaments and these sites:
Saturday 4/14/2012
