No matter late season or early, a club like offering at your school run by the HS coach (intramural like) or an actual MS program they need the best kids club wrestlers to join.

They need boys that know how to wrestle, can help others with moves, practice habits, work ethic, show how it should be done.

Some kids would never be exposed to wrestling without MS programs and our number one priority should be getting more boys involved in the sport.

We have lots of varsity boys in all classes that walked the halls until a HS coach found them, how good would they be if one of their buddies would have gotten them involved at MS level.

I feel this forum focuses on the elite a bunch...and well deserved. But wrestling rooms stink with one partner, numbers help and the good kids clubs and HS programs prove that year in and year out.

Have your kid in MS, 4-5 weeks helping others in the 7th grade isn't going to ruin your career...and you may just make a few new friends along the way. Isn't that what we washed up old folks remember in the end!
