The top three individual point scorers in each age group division will be awarded an Ultimate Challenge Series Championship Belt.

The belts for all four age group divisions will be awarded at the conclusion of the 2009 ASICS USA Wrestling Folkstyle National Championships. The Ultimate Dominator will be determined by the individual who scores the most points in all four age divisions. The Ultimate Dominator will also be determined using each individual?s top seven placement scores. USA Wrestling will recognize the Ultimate Dominator following the competition at the 2009 ASICS USA Wrestling Folkstyle National Championships. Below is the Age-Group Divisions for the 2008-09 Ultimate Challenge Series, not to be confused with age group divisions at each individual tournament.

International Wrestling Institute and Museum

Goal: Museum to re-open in time
