What is Youth Wrestling?

The Sport That's Been Wildly Growing in Popularity Throughout Tallahassee.. Much Different than WWE.

Wrestling is a captivating combat sport that challenges competitors to outscore their opponents through a dynamic blend of acquired techniques, physical strength, controlled aggression, and mental acumen. Within this sport, children master various skills, including takedowns, escapes, pinning combinations, throws, and much more. These skills extend to understanding positions, body weight distribution, and maintaining control, which hold immense value for self-defense applications. Although participation in competitive matches isn't obligatory, we provide numerous opportunities for skill assessment and growth throughout the year. 

The Top 3 Reasons Kids
Should Try Wrestling

It's Much More than a Combat Sport; Wrestlers Tend to Mentally Develop Quicker than Other Children

#3 Wrestling
Builds Resilience

Wrestling instills a level of resilience in young athletes that few other sports can match. It's a sport where success often comes from facing adversity head-on. In wrestling, kids learn to overcome setbacks, both on and off the mat. And, how to positively respond to that failure to improve. They develop mental toughness, discipline, and an unwavering determination that will serve them well in all aspects of life.

#2 Strong Sense of Discipline

One of the standout qualities of wrestling is the incredible discipline it imparts. From weight management to rigorous training schedules, wrestlers learn the importance of commitment and self-control. This discipline transcends the sport and helps children excel academically and develop strong work ethics. Wrestling teaches them to set and achieve goals with unwavering dedication.

#1 Growth & Accountability

Wrestling is a sport that places a significant emphasis on individual performance. This unique aspect of wrestling allows children to take full responsibility for their successes and failures. They learn to be accountable for their actions, and this sense of ownership carries over into academics, relationships, and future career endeavors. Wrestling encourages personal growth and self-reliance like no other sport.
