River Rival Wrestling

No experience is required! We train wrestlers from the basics. We coach folkstyle wrestling as practiced at the high school level. Safety of the wrestlers is top priority.

The objective of the program is to provide opportunities and experience for our wrestlers before competing in high school.

Our emphasis is on teaching proper technique, strength and conditioning, proper eating habits for good fuel, and attitude. 

  • We instill self-reliance–wrestlers are alone on the mat.
  • We demonstrate teamwork–through practice and competition, we make each other better.
  • We teach how to win with respect and how to lose with dignity.

With these key elements, winning on and off the mat is a result of the process.

Required Equipment
  • Headgear to protect the ears. 
  • Mouthguards for those who wear braces.

Apparel
  • The practice uniform is T-shirts and shorts.
  • The competition uniform is a singlet.
