Welcome to the Sioux Valley Youth Wrestling Club page!
The Sioux Valley Youth Wrestling Club meets every
Monday from 3:45pm - 4:45pm and
Saturday from 9:00am - 10:20am
at the Volga / Sioux Valley wrestling room.
It is comprised of youths age 4 through 14 years. We will begin the season by focusing on the fundamentals (takedown, escapes, reversals, pinning combinations, etc.) The program is geared toward exposing children to wrestling, and preparing them for middle and high school wrestling.
The club will provide the uniform (singlet) for a small deposit, which will be returned at the end of the season when the uniform is returned. Shoes may also be available (if possible), or can be purchased on your own. Wrestling headgear and a mouthguard is recommended, though optional, and be purchased from the sporting goods dealer of your choice.
Tournaments are generally individual, and you sometimes have many choices to pick from.
We believe you'll find wrestling one of the most rewarding sports your child
will be involved in. Wrestling will build strength of character and
humility, and provide them confidence that no other sport can provide.
Wrestling will teach them how to handle adversity, and to think under
pressure. Wrestling emphasizes good sportsmanship. It is also one of
the most natural (and perhaps overlooked) of the martial arts. Wrestling
was the "first sport" that men participated in, and thus has thousands
of years of history behind it.
