Notes: - Plan to drive AWD Sprinter Van regularly to arrange a ride home for as many GWS Wrestlers as possible. I will not know the details on this until I see who/where. Happy to use the time spent trailering wrestling mats and setting up for practice into making this more convenient for families. This season will make more time for drills/play/teambuilding/running/weightlifting. Many more practices this year will lead us to rely on our successful model of hard work and drilling interspersed with lighthearted play and Teambuilding. - Dates may change slightly and with written notice based on weather or updates to the High School Wrestling schedule. - I want to build a strong, fast Team on an "Intensity and Pride" model. 
Please write me about scholarships and encourage others to join without concern for dues. We are trying to keep the price lower than other sports and to maintain a community service mindset. - Please contact me at bencanady7@gmail.com to inquire about Coaching. - High School boys will be focused on their season and will exit at 5:30 each day, but we will establish a Mentor/Cross-Age buddies program that gives the athletes supervised time together and inspiration for the future.
