SUMMER WRESTLING

There are many events throughout the spring and summer for those wrestlers that wish to continue to develop throughout the year. 

Kevin Black serves a key role as River Falls Wrestling booster club's development and outreach director.  We are very fortunate to have his school and facility right here in River Falls.  It is routine for regional athletes to travel 80+ miles (one way) to work with Kevin and Victory School of Wrestling.  Victory School of Wrestling offers individual training sessions and hosts a variety of different camps and clinics throughout the year. 

Many commonly refer to "wrestling in the summer and winning in the winter".  Ask any coach and they will agree that effective summer wrestling with purpose and direction -definitely makes winter champions.

 Why Wrestle Freestyle (Article)

 

Wrestlers of all abilities come to River Falls to train and learn to compliment and supplement the efforts of their own high school and middle school wrestling coaches and their folkstyle programs.  They gain confidence and knowledge not only from elite coaching but primarily from the experience they gain with non-fellow-teammate partners from other schools and other towns.  A lot of athletes get complacent with their normal training partners and know their partners too well; therefore, one of the many benefits of "spring and summer" wrestling include working with a different coach but most importantly working effectively with different and highly skilled training partners. 

Parents that casually observe practices at Victory sometimes comment that the kids appear to be always playing.  They train very hard and play very hard and they keep coming back to learn more and develop more.  At the same time, they are learning very well with an extremely good coach in an extremely good program.  Caution: Kevin's passion for the sport and love for competition is very contagious!

Most spring and summer wrestling events require an official "USA Card".  This is an annual renewal for those who have purchased one in the past.  You can get a USA Wrestling Card at the USA Wrestling Membership Page.

ASICS / USAW Jr. / Cadet Folkstyle National Championships
Thursday through Saturday, April 1 - 3, 2010 - Cedar Falls, Iowa

You have seen wrestlers from the last half-century compete for them. It is commonly known as the “stop sign.” USA Wrestling’s eight-sided All-American trophies are some of the most sought-after in all of wrestling and on April 1-3, 2010, wrestlers will have another chance to win some major hardware at the Asics USA Wrestling Folkstyle National Championships at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls, Iowa.

This is the final USA Wrestling event of the Folkstyle season and is the last opportunity for wrestlers to ascend the USA Wrestling Future Olympian Rankings as a part of the Ultimate Challenge series. It is also the first stage of the Triple Crown, which is made up of the Folkstyle Nationals, and the Freestyle and Greco-Roman Nationals.

Finalists in the junior division qualify for funded-access to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, CO. The UNI-Dome has been a mainstay when it comes to wrestling competitions, with the 2010 event-taking place on 25 mats. Be sure to challenge yourself against the best in the country by participating in the 2010 Asics USA Wrestling Folkstyle National Championships.

WWF - Wisconsin State Freestyle & Greco-Roman Tournament
Saturday, April 24, 2010 and Sunday, April 25, 2010 - Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin

Located in Wisconsin Rapids at Lincoln High School, this is a great tournament and all 1st through 6th place-winners are qualified to compete in the summer Wisconsin team camp (held in River Falls, Wisconsin) to then proceed and qualify to compete at the ASICS / Vaughan National Championships held in Fargo, North Dakota from July 17 through July 24. 

In addition, this tournament is often a very good indicator for the Wisconsin State coaches to help determine the roster for the national duals teams for both Freestyle and Greco-Roman styles.  The Wisconsin national duals team will be in a team-format national tournament against the best roster from every other state.  This year's cadets will be in Rochester, MN, while juniors will travel to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in June.

All wrestlers must show a Proof of Birth Year at registration to wrestle or be listed on the WWF Birth Year List.  Competitors must have an USAW Competitor card also. They will be available at the door at WI Rapids at weigh-ins, Friday and Saturday morning. If a competitor does not have one and registers and weigh-ins at a satellite site they will have to buy one as they arrive. To make things a lot simpler USAW competitor cards may be purchased ahead of time.  Baldwin Woodville High School is the closest remote weigh in site for this area.

USA Wrestling - National Junior Duals Tournament

Thursday, June 24 through Monday, June 28, 2010 - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Each year, the Wisconsin Wrestling Federation selects an entire roster to compete against many of the nation's top high school wrestlers, and features the Olympic styles of wrestling: men’s freestyle, women’s freestyle and Greco-Roman.  The true strength of the team is determined at the end of the event since a team format mitigates the influence of a single dominant wrestler in a lineup.  This year’s matches will be posted at Badger State Wrestling and streaming live.

Wisconsin Wrestling Federation

Cadet and Junior National Training Camps

 

The 2010 Wisconsin National Team Training Camps will take place in River Falls, Wisconsin.  Each camp participant with stay at the Highland Inn (1207 Saint Croix Street, River Falls, WI 54022-1576 phone 715-425-8388).  All wrestlers will train at a nearby gym which is walking distance from the hotel.  Note: the 2010 Farm Technology Days event is scheduled the same week as camp.  This event will bring in an estimated 60,000+ people to River Falls during this same week. 

 

National Team Allocation & Selection

Wisconsin is allotted 51 cadets and 45 junior wrestlers per style with a maximum of four wrestlers per weight class. The only spot that is guaranteed is that of the champion at that weight in the State Greco/Freestyle Tournament held at Wisconsin Rapids on April 24 & 25th. The other spots per weight class will be determined at camp. Only the champion at the state freestyle/Greco meet is guaranteed a spot for Fargo and it is at the weight that he won it. In addition, if you place in the top three at one of the USAW Regionals (i.e. Northern Plains) you automatically qualify and do not count against our allotment for Fargo-but you still must attend the camp.

 

Costs

There are camp fees, Fargo fees for each style, uniform fees and eating expenses.  The cost of the national team training camp is $275 (cadets and juniors).  This includes hotel stay; however, participants are responsible for their own meals during camp.  There are a number of places to eat and a Walgreens within walking distance to the Highland Inn.  For those that make the national team and are planning to attend the national championships in Fargo, there is an additional $50 fee per style that covers the cost of the bus trip, hotel stay in Fargo, and entry fee into the tournament.

 

The uniform package (including team warm up jacket, red & blue team singlet, team t-shirt, team shorts and team sport bag) is an additional $185 and includes new singlets for 2010.  Each participant who competes in the National Championships must purchase the 2010 Uniform Package if they have not already and wear the correct Wisconsin singlet in Fargo.  Order singlets or packages from All American Wrestling Supply 888-285-2228.  Uniforms are not guaranteed to be available at camp; so pre-order early.
