All levels from beginner to advanced are welcome to participate and will have the opportunity to compete in various weekend tournaments. Weekly practices will stress the fundamentals of the sport. Everyone will get the opportunity to wrestle during the season. Headgear, singlets, and t-shirts will be provided. There will be a parent meeting on the first night of practice, October 31.
