1. Practices begin at 6:30pm on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Please be ready to wrestle at 6:30 sharp. We only have a short time and want to do all we can.6 and under may leave at 7:30. Regular practice ends at 8:00pm
2. All 6 and under wrestlers must have a parent present during practice either sitting on the edge of the mat or assisting.
3. Please wear wrestling shoes or clean tennis shoes that are not worn outside.
4. Wear T-shirts & sweats, shorts or practice singlets to practice. We don't want any injuries due to baggy clothes with pockets or snaps.
5. Headgear is required during all practices as well as matches.
6. No horseplay ... pushing, shoving, tackling, tripping and so forth will be allowed before or during practice. Wrestling is intensive enough without having to deal with weird injuries. After a couple warnings the wrestler will be asked to sit out.
7. Please bring a water bottle. With all of the sickness that goes on we try to avoid the water fountain.
8. Have Fun!! We are going to teach the basics and fundamentals of wrestling. It is not about how many wins or losses you have or what tournaments you attend.
It is about becoming a better, stronger more disciplined person because of wrestling ... the wins, medals and trophies are second. And above all ... make this fun for you and your child. We will stress this throughout the year. They are kids and should be treated as such.
9. Pay attention to the www.russellwrestlingclub.com website throughout the year. We will post pictures, important dates, schedules and any practice time changes on that website.
