I would say that as clubs, we need to start taking more advantage of the open room nights that numerous clubs are hosting during the week, before we start talking about putting together a Team Kansas for Tulsa.......
If we can't get together for a little live wrestling once per week, how are we going to get together, and have a team all agree about what technique is going to be taught at Team Kansas for Tulsa practices?
I think our technique is the hot ticket, Charlie KNox thinks his is, Bryce Hughbanks thinks his is, Beeson thinks his is. And as a club coach, if you don't think yours is, you better start buying tapes, going to camps, or whatever to find something that you think IS the hot ticket.......Etc Etc Etc..........
I think we need to stick to our own club's technique, and leave the Team Kansas thing for the Middle School duals, Elem School duals, FS GR's Schoolboy, Cadet, and Junior Duals........
doug I think your right but alot of kansas clubs are close minded to broading thier kids horizans. Exploring other coaching and partners. I theres a club up here that made there kids and parents sign a contract at the start of the season stating they are FORBIDDEN from practicing out side the club, only go to the tournments the club attends etc. Its obserd.
Now understanding that we've made a living off being nomads but it works for us we practice East Kansas once in a while, purler, purler ultimate, lots of home Father son time. even went to a few park hill, victory mo. where ever the partners are. its great to change things up.
