BUILT NOT RECRUITED
Before anyone takes this as a personal attack, let us explain. Our slogan has nothing to do with any organization but OURS. We don't seek already good wrestlers. However, we are open to those willing to work not just to learn but compete and excel in the sport of wrestling.
Do not waste our time, and we will not waste yours. Part-time wrestlers get part-time results. So if you're looking to get in shape or maybe come in once in a while, we are not the gym for you. No need for practice champs. If you are going to be in this room, competing is a requirement! Lets build the sport, wrestling has so much to offer and we have provided the environment and place to do just that.
EXPECTATION OF WRESTER
- Come to practice every day! Your potential to become successful relies on your attendance.
- Practice will suck for the first month. We will not sugar coat, nor are we trying to scare you. This won't be very pleasant. But, you WILL get through it, and it will become easier.
- Drink WATER! This will help you during practice. Our rooms are kept hot, and it's hot for a reason.
- If you cry, that's fine. You can cry and run.
Know the difference between injury and hurt. If you don't know, ask.
- Grades are important, if you are failing, you have no business being at practice. We will know if you are.
- Don't be a turd. It will be addressed if you are being disrespectful and showing negative sportsmanship. Don't care if you're a state champ, city champ, or self-proclaimed champ.
- Keep your mouth in check. (Bad words)
- You carry your OWN gear and tie your OWN shoes!
- COMPETE! This will only help you get better. Not here to help you get better at just practice.
EXPECTATION OF PARENT
- We are not babysitters. We expect parents to be parents and allow coaches to coach.
- We charge minimum to be affordable and be able to pay for this facility. Please pay on time. Yes, we are a non-profit. However, bills to maintain the club can care less. We charge monthly to be able to pay those bills.
- We no longer sponsor. When parents and athletes are not invested, they discontinue coming in. It takes a lot of energy and resources to teach and train someone to wrestle. No, it's not about the money, but if you are here to waste time, you can waste your money.
- Our coaches volunteer. They are not obligated to coach on the weekends, and it is not a requirement to have a coach to wrestle on the weekends. We do not charge coaching fees.
- We are a disciplined club that teaches respect and accountability. Un coachable kids become unemployable adults.
- Wrestlers coming into practice must carry their own gear and put on their own shoes.
- Please bring YOUR own water. It is hot, and we keep our rooms hot.
A hot and uncomfortable wrestling room is not child abuse.
- We don't require you to stay during practice. It is actually better not to attend. We learned with mom in the room the waterworks become frequent.
- The more your wrestler attends practice, the better they become. If we see you twice a month please don't ask why they are not improving.
