WRESTLING
Team Mission StatementOur goal is to introduce the sport of wrestling to your son or daughter, emphasize the basic skills and fundamentals of the sport, while maintaining good sportsmanship and spirit of competition. In addition, we strongly focus on building character, confidence, and a positive attitude among our wrestlers.
We believe effort is vital to the success of the program. The wrestler must be willing to sacrifice pride, dignity, and heart for the outcome of the match. The wrestler must be willing to give their all without worrying about the outcome. The technique, strength, quickness, and intelligence will come once the desire to win is achieved. Wrestling is a mental game of confidence and belief in one’s talents.
