We are approximately 6 weeks away from the start of the high school wrestling season- November 9th! Now is the time to start training and getting prepared!!
Start with your diet and exercise now - It will make the transition a lot easier when it comes time!
To get ready for the season, DeLand-Weldon is going to host open weights at DeLand-Weldon weight room Tuesday and Thursday morning beginning October 6th! From 630am-730am. They are also going to have open weights and open mats at DW weight room on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6pm-8pm. Enter through the North gym door.
This is open to anyone and everyone whether you wrestle or not! If you or your friends or other sports related teammates are even remotely interested- come on out and give it a try!
This is out of season- therefore the coaches will not be coaching- supervision is only provided, weights and mat time will be run by current wrestlers!
Looking forward to getting things started, and we have added contests to our schedule this year!
