Emmaus Youth Wrestling is part of the Valley Elementary Wrestling League (VEWL). This website is designed to convey information about our our team and out league. On the VEWL website, News and results will be posted periodically through the season to communicate more readily with the families.
The VEWL is comprised of 32 teams from the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania. It may vary from year to year depending if a new team enters or teams drop out, but its typically around 32 teams. These 32 teams form 4 divisions of 8 teams and will battle through the course of the season to be crowned the VEWL Regular Season Team Champion.
The VEWL has 17 weight classes that these wrestlers compete in. The weight classes are: 46, 50, 54, 58, 61, 64, 67, 70, 73, 76, 80, 85, 90, 95, 105, 120, and 160. The teams are made up of wrestlers from each teams community in grades K thru 6. Each team in the league could be comprised of a Varsity team, a Junior Varsity team and an Exhibition team. The VEWL holds a League tournament at the end of each season for the Varsity, Junior Varsity and Novice wrestlers.
