Important to Know

Wrestling is a great foundation sport that will make your child a well-rounded athlete. We will focus on basic fundamentals and proven wrestling techniques in the development of our wrestlers.

We believe in a “Build them Up” philosophy where everyone is here to help each other get better. All groups focus on mastering body control.

Wrestling/learning games will be played in every practice. We believe in focusing on the fun of wrestling. As much fun as winning is, we want to see our wrestlers develop and grow as athletes. We will focus on positive attitudes, effort, and respect for self, teammates, and coaches. 

Fully Equipped: FEYSB covers singlets for competition, warm-ups for all travel teams, and headgear as needed. Athletes are required to purchase their own wrestling shoes.
