This Week’s Wrestling Schedule

District Wrestle till you drop on Tuesday at Spanish Fork Junior High School (not HS).

Start Time is 5:30. 5/6th graders not invited again. Sorry. No cost. No practice that day.

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday normal practice.

Weigh in for Wasatch Tournament on Thursday or Friday. They changed their tournament to a non internet registration so I will need to weigh in each wrestler and email them in. So don’t show up on Saturday if you haven’t weighed in.

You will need to bring the $10.00 and pay when you check in at the tournament. There are still a few of you who have not paid my for Delta or for South Summit. Remember that I am paying for you guys out of my pocket for those tournaments if you forget to bring you money. If money is an issue, please talk to me. This Wasatch tournament will be pre-weigh, but you will pay when you check in at the door. So this week DON’T pay me. Just pay them.

Congratulations on another great tournament Saturday. I want to express my appreciation to all the coaches who were there to support the team in my absence. Here is what is up for the next two weeks.

We have practice today and tomorrow at the normal times.

Wednesday morning from 7:00 to 8:30 we will have a regular practice. Instead of just a run. The Wednesday practice is optional.

This week we will be doing challenge matches today and tomorrow for the South Summit tournament. The information is as follows:

Saturday January 2nd. Meet at 5:20 AM, leave at 5:30 AM. Weigh ins at South Summit at 7:00 AM. This is the first same day weigh in tournament we have had this year. $10.00 per boy. Bring the cash that morning. Plan on all day.

65, 70, 73, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100, 105, 112, 116, 120, 128, 135, 145, 155, 165, 185, HWT 275.

We are taking one varsity team and supplementing Spanish Fork’s team where they have holes. We can take a few extras so even if you don’t make varsity for this tournament and want to go, please let me know!

The following week, we have club practice on Wednesday night the 30th, Thursday the 31st and Friday January 1st. These are all club practices and are not mandatory. I do expect that if you are going to South Summit, that you come to most of these optional practices.

Champions Wrestling Club Wins Delta Duals 2009

Champions wrestling club took first place at the Delta Junior High Duals yesterday against some great Utah Wrestling Teams including Spanish Fork, Delta, Wasatch, Millard, Box Elder and Payson. The competition was intense and all the boys from every team deserve to be recognized for their dedication and hard work.

Keep up the hard work Utah Youth Wrestlers – You should all be very proud to be a part of this great sport.

A special thanks to all the coaches involved in our youth wrestling programs.

First I want to say congratulations to our team. As was expected, we were able to win both trophies at the Salt Lake Slam. This is a national level tournament and we were, as a club able to win both of the older division championship trophies.

Another busy week for everyone.

Monday, Regular practice for Jr. High and Club. During club portion on Monday and Tuesday we will have the more experienced Spanish Fork wrestlers in our room with us to help us get ready for the Delta Duals.

Tuesday, same as Monday. Regular practice times.

Wednesday: Regular early start, but ending practice early. Practice will end at 4:30 PM to get ready for wrestle till you drop for the younger kids.

Wednesday night I will need 7-9 grade officials to officiate kids matches. I will need five officials that night from 5:00 till 9:00. They will be paid.

Thursday is a short practice again due to the high school dual meets. Maple Mountain is wrestling Springville at Springville. 5:00 JV and 7:00 Varsity. I would like everyone to be there if possible. You must wear your team t-shirt that night to get in for free.

Friday. Coach Killian and I will both be at the high school tournament on Friday. We will have practice on Friday for sure. It will be for those wrestlers who are traveling to Delta this week. They will be in charge of moving mats to the stage after practice, and they will need to make weight. A Coach (whomever runs practice that night) will need to weigh in each wrestler during Friday’s practice.

The tournament on Saturday at Delta is for those that make the varsity and JV teams. I will be willing to take some extra kids in case of injury, or in case there are extra spots on other teams.

Spanish Fork will be filling in some of our weights and we will be filling in some of their weights so we can collectively take more guys.

If you are in 6th grade and below, I suggest you wrestle at Spanish Fork this weekend. register on trackwrestling.com like every other week. $10.00. You will put in your own honest weight. No weigh ins at Spanish Fork.

The Delta meet is also $10.00 per boy. If you make the travel team, you need to bring $10.00 to coach LaMont.

Car pool will meet at 5:50 AM on Saturday for Delta. Leaving the lot at 6:00 AM.
