Varsity Sanctioning

Hawaii was the first state to sanction Girls Wrestling at a high school level in 1998. Texas joined in during 1999, with Washington (2007) and California (2011) becoming the third and fourth state to sanction it as a varsity sport. In 2018, the sport began seeing rapid growth across the nation. The growth sparked a desire to begin pushing the sport into its own, stand alone identity, in the first state by the likes of Buddy Llyod (Boys Varsity Wrestling Chairperson - DIAA) and Vic Leonard (Creator of The Beast of the East & Delaware Wrestling Alliance Board Member).

From 2020 to 2023 there were State "Roll Arounds" held at year's end, giving the ladies their own stage to showcase their talents, pairing girls amongst common weights, while maximizing mat time. From 2024 to 2026 there were "unofficial" Girls Championship events amongst the initial weight classes created in the Level 2 promotion: 100, 107, 114, 120, 126, 132, 138, 145, 152, 165, 185, 235.

In the summer of 2024, the DIAA promoted the sport to Level 2 athletic status and a formal Girls Wrestling Committee was formed. On March 19th, 2026 the DIAA Competition Committee officially granted level 3 varsity status to Girls Wrestling. This sanctioning paves the way to a formal state recognized championship event and made Delaware the 47th state to sanction the sport.

This page will serve as a way to commemorate the initial committee responsible for getting the sport to its current status, as well as the young ladies who paved the way showing that girls have a place in this great sport in the first state.
