How can I volunteer? Many opportunities to volunteer are available: be a team mom, assist with photography/video during matches and practices, table help (timer, score keeper, flip chart, etc.) referee, and a host of other ideas.
Does my son/daughter need headgear? No, the league does not require it in order to compete. However, they are recommended to add extra protection to the ears.
What type of clothing does my son/daughter need to wrestle? No tennis shoes are allowed on the mat surface. Wrestling shoes are highly recommended, along with shorts, and a tight shirt for practice. You will need to purchase a singlet for tournament competition.
What factors will determine who my son/daughter will wrestle in a tournament or practice? Weight is the #1 factor. In practice coaches will try to pair kids that are close in size and ability. In a tournament, your child will wrestle in their respective age and weight class, as well as their experience level.

What are experience levels? Novice is for the beginne wrestler who has not placed more than 12 times at any tournament. Open is for the wrestler who has placed more than 12 times at a Novice tournament.
When are the tournaments? They are typically on a Saturday and will either be in the morning session or afternoon session. The cost to wrestle in each tournament is $12 to $15. Your child does not have to attend every tournament, but the more your child wrestles, the better he/she becomes. We do attend out of town tournaments during the year but again is optional.
Why is wrestling such a great sport? Not only is wrestling fun to watch, but the sport teaches athletes the importance of self control, good sportsmanship, good work/training ethic, discipline and the demonstration of good character in victory and defeat.
Is good hygiene important? Wrestling is a close contact sport. Keeping nails trimmed and bathing with soap, following practices and dual meets, is strongly suggested.
Where can I buy or order wrestling shoes, head gear and or other wrestling supplies?
You can buy from local retailers such as Mid West Sporting Goods, Academy, and Sports Authority.
