OUR HISTORY

The push to create Wrestlers WithOut Borders stems from the 1990 Gay Games III in Vancouver. Club leaders from across the globe organized to develop higher, uniform standards and procedures for Gay Games wrestling tournaments to ensure mission goals of safety and inclusion. In 2006 our bylaws were revised to extend our mission beyond the Gay Games. We are an international organization of clubs and individuals working to promote the sport of wrestling and help our clubs provide safe and productive wrestling opportunities in accepting and proactive environments. Our members are involved in wrestling at every level from youth programs on up.
