Meet Roger!

This is Roger, our new Snap and Shoot at the gym! He's designed to help our wrestlers perfect their technique for single leg and double leg takedowns, arm drags and head snaps. He also offers resistance, so he will help the boys gain strength in their arms and core.

Coach Riley and Kent

 

If you haven't already, please go pick up your team gear at T&R Sports. They want everything picked up and paid for by February 1st. 

This Week, Beehive Brawl Results, and Tournament Info

This week we will be having practices as scheduled. Please remember that the advanced team will practice both Tuesday and Wednesday from 4:30 - 6:30 pm, and the regular team will practice from 4:30 - 5:30 on Wednesday.

We had a great time at the Beehive Brawl! It was a tough tournament, and our wrestlers fought hard! Braygen was the only wrestler that placed, he came home with 3rd! Congratulations Braygen!

Our next tournament will be Super State on February 7th and 8th. This tournament is up in Heber City, and you need a USA card to attend. If you're planning on going, please get signed up quick. The posted deadline is February 6th, at 1:00 AM, but it can close at any time if the event reaches its cap. Also, they put the wrestlers names on the shirts they sell, so if you want your son's name on the shirt, sign up as soon as possible.

If you didn't see the post from the other day, T&R has all our team gear ready. You need to have your stuff picked up (and paid for) by February 1st, or they will put it out for sale.


Here's the slideshow from the Brawl. Enjoy!

Wrestling Gear

If you have ordered wrestling gear from T&R, get it picked up by February 1st. Unpaid orders and gear that hasn't been picked up will be SOLD!

If you didn't order gear, but would like to see what extras they have available, stop in to their store. They said there might be a few extra singlets.

Practice Correction

I posted the practice changes wrong for the regular class, so here are the correct times:


Regular Class: Wednesdays from 4:30-5:30

Advanced Class: Tuesdays from 4:30-6:30
                                   Wednesdays from 4:30-6:30


Sorry for all of the confusion!

Practice Changes and Juab Tournament

The wrestlers that traveled to Juab on Saturday did an awesome job! I'll post the results and slideshow tomorrow...

The coaches have decided to make some changes to the practice schedule. The advanced class will now go two days a week. They will practice on Tuesdays, from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm, and ALSO on Wednesday's, from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm.

The regular class will stay on Wednesday's only, however, they will now go from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm as well (instead of ending at 5:30 pm).

Juab information and order status

Here are the times for the Juab tournament on Saturday:

8:00-10:00 am: Pre-K/K and 1/2 Grade Divisions
10:00-11:30 am: 3/4 Grade Divisions
11:30-1:30 pm: 5/6 Grade Divisions

You will need to sign up for this tournament on track wrestling, and you will need a USA card. After you sign up, please text your weights to Cody. Please remember, you have to be signed up by 4:30 pm tomorrow (Friday, January 17th), and we need to have weights entered shortly after that. So please be signed up and weights turned in BEFORE that to avoid any issues. If you don't sign up on time, or get Cody your weight on time, you won't be allowed to wrestle Saturday.

We also handed out most of the gear last night. If you didn't get your stuff, get ahold of T&R. The grappling shorts haven't came in yet, so those will need to be picked up directly from them when they get here.  Also, if you haven't paid for your order, you'll need to do that. They will not release your stuff until it's paid for.

Juab Tournament

Sorry about the short notice, but if you're interested, there is a tournament in Juab this weekend (we just found out about it today). You will need a USA card to attend, and you sign up on track wrestling. If you want to sign up, you have till Friday at 4:30 pm. If you're going, please text Cody your weight and he will enter them Friday evening. I'll update this site tomorrow with tournament times.

This Week and the Beehive Brawl

We will have practice as scheduled this week (Wednesday at 4:30).

Our next tournament is the Beehive Brawl on January 24-25th. If you are planning on going, you need a USA card.

This year, the tournament is going to be a little different (and a little confusing). Everyone will weigh in on Friday, the 24th. Weigh in's begin at 2:00 pm at the Sevier Valley Center in Richfield, and go until 8:00 pm. HOWEVER, if your son is going to wrestle in the 6 & under category, or the 8 & under category, their weigh in's will close at 5:15 pm, becuase they will be wrestling FRIDAY beginning at 6:30 pm.

If your wrestler falls into the 10 & under, 12 & under or 15 & under categories, they can weigh in till 8:00 pm, and will wrestle beginning at 9:00 am on Saturday.

Registration for the Beehive Brawl closes at midnight on January 20, 2014. When you register, please make sure you put your wrestler in the correct weight class. If you don't, they will charge you an extra $25 to correct it when you weigh in.

Please let a coach know if you are planning on going, so we know what wrestlers to look for. Thanks!

New Toy

You may have noticed this little guy while dropping off or picking up your wrestler from practice. If you're wondering what it is, it's our new Takedown Defender! It will help the boys perfect their takedown technique and gain speed during their takedowns.

It will also help them learn to use chest pressure and balance during a sprawl, so they can get behind their opponent to get points.

 

Order update...

T&R called today and we will not have our singlets till next week, the order hasn't shown up yet. They also said that the shorts and other gear are being shipped seperately, so those may take an extra week or so. 

Salt Lake Slam slideshow, Tournament information and order update

We had five wrestlers attend the Salt Lake Slam in Heber City. Our wrestlers battled with teams from Nevada, Idaho, Wyoming, Washington, Colorado, Nebraska, Montana, and Arizona, and did an amazing job! Owen came home with 2nd place, and Gage took 4th. Other wrestlers that attended were Glen, Tezlin and Keegan.

Here's a short slideshow:

Our next tournament will be the Beehive Brawl in Richfield, January 24-25. You need a USA Card to attend this tournament. You can sign up on TrackWrestling. To view the flyer for the tournament, click here.

We called T&R Sports for an update on the order for our wrestling gear. They are hoping everything comes this week, so hopefully we'll have everything by our practice next Wednesday. If by chance the order comes in today, we'll hand it out at tomorrows practice.

This Week...

We will be back to our regular practices this week (Wednesday at 4:30 pm). Please check back tomorrow for our slideshow from the Salt Lake Slam!
