Youth Wrestling

Modeled directly after our high school club, the Grizzlies Youth program is the preeminent youth wrestling program in Western Massachusetts. This program is dedicated specifically to 1st- 8th-grade student-athletes and attracts boys and girls from all over the region and beyond.

Practices are run with the structure of a varsity high school practice with a focus on fundamentals as we work at a speed and content relevant for our younger athletes. Our games approach teaching model serves to enhance the club members’ athletic abilities by teaching advanced youth wrestling techniques and combining that with age-appropriate youth agility & strength training.  Additional focus will be on developmental skills like teamwork, resilience, emotional control, and youth goal setting.
