Hello!
A reminder that practice will begin September 22nd. Like last year, we will split practices. The first session will run from 5:15 to 6:00. We reccomend that wrestlers with less than 3 years experiece, and those under 8 highly consider this session. It will help with size and ability compatability for practice partenrs. Our older, and more advanced wrestlers will practice from 6:00 to 7:30. This will be a bit more intense. Any middle school or high school wreslters that wish to attend the early session to help our younger wrestlers are encouraged to do so.
I would like to remind everyone that our club is 100% volunteer run. There are no paid postitions on the board, or coaches. While this helps to keep our costs minimal it means we depend on parents to become involved. A great way to do that while learning our sport is become a volunteer coach. Most of us started out as a parent wanting to spend time with our own child. By getting your USA coaching card you can have floor access at events and spend time helping our youth. Even if you know little about wrestling your help during practice is incredibly valuable. Most of the time a parent can pay better attention to instruction and be able to help kids learn what was demonstrated. These years go by quick and this unique opportunity will start to go away as they enter middle school, and high school. Helping kids other than your own at tournaments is incredibly rewarding. I really encourage you to consider helping out.
There will be a parent meeting on September 29th at 6:00 PM. We will only run a single session that night from 5:30 to 7:00.
See you all soon!
Dan
