What are the ages?

Club wrestling is PreK-4th Grade. 4th Graders have the option of wrestling down at the club or up at the Jr. High. We do encourage 4th graders to wrestle on the Jr. High team; it’s more affordable since it’s a school sponsored team, it’s more practices, more intense/advanced and they can compete at the state tournament. Jr. High is for 4th-9th graders. 9th graders have the option of wrestling at the high school or for the Jr. High.

What are the dates?

Jr. High season begins September 28th with practices being Monday-Thursday after school until 5:15, Fridays 1:00-3:00. Mini Utes begin October 5th with practices 3 days a week. Mighty Utes begin October 6th and practice 3 days a week. Jr. High, Mini Utes and Mighty Utes have optional tournaments every weekend (aside from the state tournament for Jr. High). Calendars will be posted each month with tournaments/practice schedules. Those participating in fall sports can begin once their fall sports end but no later than October 19th for the Jr. High team. Any kids beginning after that date must join the Mighty Utes. Folkstyle season ends after Super State February 12th and 13th.

What genders can wrestle?

Our program is co-ed. Each program has both boys and girls on the team. Girls do have the option of practicing with female partners, if they prefer.

What equipment is required?

Registration includes a t-shirt and shorts. Singlets and warm ups can be checked out to Jr. High wrestlers. Headgear and mouthguards may be required at National tournaments but are not necessary at most tournaments (we do have some available to check out). Wrestling shoes are required for competitions. We will have a team store for anyone wanting to purchase additional gear.

What options for wrestling are available in the spring/summer?

After the folkstyle/winter season ends in February, there are a couple different options to wrestle:

1. Tiger League- Tiger League is a 6 week program that is meant to be an introduction to wrestling. Kids who are new to wrestling and are wanting to try it out should give Tiger League a try!

2. Club Freestyle & Greco- Kids who wrestled on the Jr. High, High School and Mini/Mighty Utes teams come together in the spring to wrestle Freestyle and Greco (international styles). The Freestyle/Greco state tournament is typically the end of April, however, we will continue wrestling Freestyle/Greco to prepare for national tournaments throughout the summer.

3. Beach Wrestling- Towards the end of our spring season we start adding in beach wrestling practices. We will continue to do a combination of beach wrestling and Freestyle/Greco practices through the summer.

4. International Tour- We take a group of our athletes on one international tour each summer for a training camp. 2024’s tour was to Italy. 2025’s tour was to Japan. 2026’s tour was South Africa. 2027 Tour is TBD. Athletes are selected based on participation, performance and work ethic.
