All wrestlers must have a USA Card. If you are going to compete in the spring season you need to purchase the Full Athlete Membership, otherwise you can just purchase the Limited Athlete Membership. You can always purchase the Limited Athlete Membership and then upgrade later to the Full Athlete Membership. You can purchase this card at www.usawmembership.com (there is a video on the home page of www.wlwrestling.com that explains how to do this if needed). This card is needed for practice and tournaments. This is an insurance card that covers the school, coaches and athletes.
