Jamaican Wrestling: Empower Athletes, Build Champions

Donation protected
My name is Ken Burgess and I am a volunteer administrator and coach with the Jamaica Wrestling Federation.

The Jamaica Wrestling Federation (JWF) Is the governing body for armature wrestling in Jamaica and is dedicated to the development, promotion, and growth of amateur wrestling in Jamaica. Despite the challenges faced by the sport in our region, JWF has made incredible strides in inspiring young athletes, achieving international recognition, and providing opportunities for success in wrestling on a global stage. However, continued success and sustainability require strategic investments in athletes, coaches, facilities, and resources. We are calling on the generosity of our partners, donors, and the community to support us in fulfilling our mission to elevate Jamaican wrestling to new heights.

The Impact of Your Support:
Your investment in the Jamaica Wrestling Federation will directly impact the growth of the sport and the development of athletes. By contributing, you will:

  • Nurture Talent: Help identify, train, and develop young wrestlers who will go on to represent Jamaica at national and international competitions.

  • Elevate Jamaican Wrestling: Through funding for coaching programs, national events, and international exposure, you will elevate the standard of wrestling in Jamaica.

  • Create Opportunities: Your support will provide underprivileged youth with the opportunity to excel in a sport that teaches life skills, teamwork, and personal growth.

Why Your Support Matters:
The future of Jamaican wrestling is bright, but we need your help to get there. Wrestling provides a powerful avenue for young athletes to change the trajectory of their lives and to represent Jamaica with pride on the global stage. With your support, we can provide the resources, training, and opportunities necessary to help our athletes achieve their full potential and bring home the gold.

Join us today in building a legacy of success, pride, and excellence for Jamaican wrestling. Together, we can change the future.

Thank you for donating.
