Coaches:

Head Instructor for 4-6 Grade: Scott Dougles

Attire:

Wear shorts and t-shirt or a singlet. A singlet is a one piece garment worn by wrestlers. Black singlets with the Hempfield logo are available for purchase through the Booster Club at practices. They are not mandatory for practice but tournaments often require a singlet. Wrestling shoes, although advised, are not mandatory. Street shoes are not permitted on the mat, so bring a change of sneakers. Wrestling shoes can be purchased at most sporting goods stores.

Tournaments:

Tournaments are held on Saturdays or *Sunday throughout the county. Tournaments are available at various skill levels and are not mandatory. The elementary program is instructional in nature; the coaches will help athletes prepare for competition, but it is up to the individual wrestler and his family to decide upon tournament participation.

*Sunday Tournaments are not the norm, but there may be one or two you might want to go to.
