ATHLETES
CLAW will feature many of the top wrestlers in the sport, including senior-level and potentially collegiate wrestlers. While CLAW will always be fan-focused, we also want to be an "athlete-friendly" league. In addition to creating numerous opportunities for wrestlers to earn compensation, CLAW intends to treat athletes with the respect they deserve as competitors in one of the world's toughest sports.
BENEFITS TO ATHLETES
* Earn compensation by competing, teaching, and growing the sport (up to 40k per season)
* Increase exposure and build personal brands
* Belong to a team again (for post-collegiate wrestlers)
* Enjoy competing in exciting events with rules which combine folkstyle and freestyle, plus some new innovations
* Help accomplish what has never been done before (creating a successful professional league)
REQUIRED COMMITMENT
* Participate in two regular season events + playoffs if team qualifies (all events are just one day and take place between mid-October and Thanksgiving)
* Attend Athlete Orientation and Media Day (just one day in the late summer/early fall)
* Make a small number of social media posts to help promote the league and your involvement in it
ROSTER COMPOSITION
Interested wrestlers register each spring for the upcoming season. The initial Draft will be conducted in the spring of 2024 with General Managers of six teams selecting athletes from the draft pool. In future years, the annual draft will be preceded by "Declaration Day," CLAW's innovative approach to managing team rosters. More information on the draft, Declaration Day, free agency, trades and more will be posted here soon.
COMING SOON-----sample athlete contract, firm 2024 competition dates, and more!
