2019-2020 Tournament Schedule

Tournaments are 100% optional !

The coaches will evaluate the wrestler to determine their skill level and mental readiness.  Once ready we will talk it over with the parents.  We want them to be successful and enjoy the experience.  We DONT want them to fail and get frustrated or discouraged.  Tournaments can be a blast, and at the same time very tough ! Depending on the competition, it could be a great day, or a rough one !!  See Expectations below.

 

The coaches will choose several events (2-3/month) that we will attend as a team.  You are welcome to go to any or all tournaments once your wrestler is ready !!
