国产探花

Welcome to 国产探花Middle School Co-Ed Wrestling! Please click here to view Parent Resources and Forms for Middle School Co-Ed Wrestling.  

Description:

Midle School Co-Ed Wrestling is a competitive sport where student athletes refine their skills in practices and competition.  Team work, commitment, and dedication to improve throughout the season are nurtured by their coaches.  Many competitive High School Athletes have come out of 国产探花Wrestling programs.  

Typical Start Date:

Tryouts are typically in Early November.  Matches begin in late-November. 

Each Middle School has a combined 7th Grade Team and an 8th Grade Team, which are divided into a Varsity Squad and Junior Varsity Squad.  The squads may change throughout the year depending on wrestle-offs within each team.   Students from feeder schools within the attendnace area of the Middle 国产探花 may also participate as low as 5th grade.  

Typical End Date:

The 国产探花Wrestling Championship Tournament takes place during the second week of January, prior to State Tournaments.  Unless a team signs up for an outside tournament, the District tournament is the end of their season.    

Events:

Practices at the 国产探花

The five Middle 国产探花 participate in hosting each other and playing away at each others schools.  Occasionally, matches outside the district are arranged based on availability and busing.  

At the end of the season, the wrestlers on each team are seeded into a District Tournament for each weight class for the Varsity or junior Varsity Championship.  

Who Participates:

Wrestling is not a tryout sport,  All who wish to wrestle need to show up, work hard, and make it though the season.  Wrestling develops athletics skills for both boys and girls who can and do wrestle against one another.  Endurance, balance, strength, and technique are developed though the intensity of wrestling.  Any student, no matter their level of experience, will emerge as a better all around athlete.   Other factors encouraged by coaches during the season are grades, behavior, communication, sportsmanship, and good team work.   There are 18 weight classes to meet the diversity of our growing students (68, 73, 78, 83, 88, 93, 98, 104, 111, 118, 125, 133, 142, 154, 167, 180, 200, and Heavyweight). 

With both Varsity and junior Varsity teams full, a team can at least 36 athletes but are at times much larger.

Prior training:

Wrestling requires endurance and rigorous physical contact.  Having previous experience is helpful, but most athletes have never participated in organized wrestling prior to middle school, so it is not a deficit to not have a background.  Anyone interested should prepare themselves physically for the rigor of the sport though generally good physical fitness and training.
