Here is our Freestlye Plan

Leavenworth County Wrestling Team
2007 Freestyle and Greco
1. Welcome to the Leavenworth County Wrestling Team. We are glad to extend our program for spring and summer freestyle / Greco-Roman wrestling. The saying, “Summer Time Wrestling Makes Winter Time Champions”, is not just a catchy slogan. Time and time again, we have watched wrestlers put the time in during the spring and summer and surpass their peers that decided to put their wrestling shoes in the closet until next winter. Improve your wrestling. Be a Spartan!
Our team vision is to—
Provide Leavenworth County a first class wrestling team that uses the sport of wrestling to teach life lessons. Wrestlers will learn the value of teamwork, sportsmanship, discipline, fitness for life, work ethic, and goal setting.
Our team motto is –
Building Champions for the Game of Life
2. Age: 5 years old and up (college wrestlers welcomed)
3. Cost: We are a non-profit organization and make every attempt possible to keep cost to our wrestlers at a minimum. Our freestyle/ Greco-Roman fees will help buy team singlets.
• New Members: $50 + USAW Competitors Card. Team membership includes short and t-shirt and the use of a blue and red singlet for the spring/summer.
• Spartan Folkstyle Members: If you are currently a Spartan that registered this fall, the cost is $25.00.

4. Practice Times and Locations: Practices are Tuesday and Thursday from 6:00 to 7:45 at Xavier Middle School (5th and Kickapoo, Leavenworth).
