November 11, 2010 - Wrestling Begins Next Week!
Attention Wrestlers!
Reminder that practices for all wrestlers begin next Tuesday, November 16 in Gym 2 at Ridgewood High School. We will soon be scheduling a parents meeting; so please be on the lookout for that.
Now is probably a good time to review a few notes bout practices. All of this can also be found on our web site (www.ridgewoodwrestling.org) under the FAQ section:
-
Elementary School kids = 6:30pm to 7:45pm
-
Middle School kids = 7:45pm to 9:15pm
- Headgear
- Clean wrestling boots
- Well-clipped fingernails!!!!!!!
- T-Shirt & sweats or shorts
- Water bottle
-
Our policy is to wear headgear during practice and in competition. We ask each wrestler to purchase their own, put their name in it and be sure to bring it with them at all times. Headgear and wrestling boots are available at nearly any sporting goods store.
-
All wrestlers need a pair of wrestling boots that are used only for wrestling. Please don’t wear your wrestling shoes to practice as they will bring dirt, snow, etc onto the mats. Change into them in the gym.
As always, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to send an email to me.
