About Journeymen Wrestling
The Journeymen Wrestling Club was the brainchild of Frank Popolizio, now a member of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame (2018).
Popolizio’s hope, when developing the concept in 1999, was to bring top-tier wrestling to upstate New York, while supporting and teaching the area’s up-and-coming amateur competitors.
His efforts first brought Division I collegiate teams to the area, and it wasn’t long before Popolizio was able to introduce a youth program, plus camps and clinics that featured some of the sport’s top names as instructors and mentors.
Even as the Journeymen Wrestling Club continued to grow, host more events and spread its messages, Popolizio continued reaching the next generation of stars as a championship-winning high school coach in the Capital Region of upstate New York.
