Looked good to me we had some good and exciting matches the first night.

when is the next one and how much?

when is the next one and how much?

do yall take checks? and if so who will i make it out too??

I thought we had a good practice, everyone seemed to get a good work-out but input is appeciated

Wed's focus will be Greco i know not many of you are very well versed in this style but we have several guys that have placed very well in this style and think we can make you all more welll rounded wrestlers based on our variety of styles

Come and join us there is strength in numbers

Going back to the poll question... I think that practices are organized fairly well. I would include more technique training and extend time to 8:00pm. 3 hours a week is equivalent to one practice forreal. Just doesnt seem like enough. A little more time would enable us to include the small area that the poll proves we seem to be lacking in.

Just a suggestion from a fellow instructor.

I agree. I think it should last until 9. That would allow for alot more technique and live wrestling which is, IMO, what most of us need. The level of wrester is better than I thought. Guys like Derek Nickel, Hector Rosado, Kevin Porter, and many other solid wrestlers are members. I encourage everyone in the area to come out and give it a try. It should be really good for those summer slackers to get in some wrestling and conditioning.

Thanks Danger we are trying to accomidate everyone, however we are limited to how late the school says we can be there.

I personally think practice tonight was very good alot of people have no basic knowledge of greco/roman so all went well, our next focus will be freestyle i think everybody will get more practical use from our next session, it can be hard to juggle 3 styles but it will help everyone in the long run

We had record attendance tonight by the way

                                                          Thanks all who attended

                                                          Coach Nickel

South End Wrestling Club members. If you want an extra night of wrestling just bring your USA Wrestling cards to Moore on Thursdays open mat from 7:00-about 8:30. No charge, just need your card. Great to hear your having a good turn out Coach Nickel.

The greco drills and stuff are really good for us. Not only does it make us more well rounded with our wresting on our feet, but it's a great upper body workout.

just want to put my two cents worth in... as one of the coaches i have to say i am very pleased with all the young men who have chosen to sign up. its a great group.everybody is working hard, and i can tell they want to progress with their wrestling skills.we are growing very fast.if everyone continues throughout the summer and attends as many tournaments as they can.the benefits will be seen come next year at regionals and state. thats a guarantee.also we will pick a few tournaments this year to enter as a team.with the group we have we will do well.keep it up guys, and thanks for joining southend wrestling.

this is just me but I think we should live wrestle and run more to stay inshape

Live wrestle is important but you can run on your own. The place is not big enough with all the people we have So instructions and live wrestle to me is the most important. Today is Saturday and I was up at  8:00 and ran 2 miles and plan on working out afternoon and the run again later For me since I missed last year I need to bone up on the basics again and get as much live wrestle as I can. Especially since Wed. night I was sick and again missed live wrestling. Running in there with every one else just takes away time I could get live wrestling in. As a former U OF L coach used to stay he did not make his team run wind sprints he ran them on the field doing plays instead of taking time away from his practice just to run. Seems as though it worked U OF L did pretty good last year. I say run on your own MORE INSTRUCTION AND LIVE WRESTLE

you see all these things are good but the off-season is about learning also and if we just live wrestle you wont get any new techniques!

basically I agree with you. When I meant live wrestling I meant wrestling each other on the new moves. I have already learned a few new moves just from Coach Nickle I plan on using this summer after missing last year I need to brush up on some of the new moves you have learned and there is no other place to do it is when you teach them then we use them. I was just stating I want to learn as much during the practice and wrestle with them to see how it works on different people and run and condition on my own I don't want time from learning taken aay just to run in the small building

What is the situation with singlets? If we do the pizza fundraiser, when are we gettin' the forms? Also, what were the decided designs on singlets and shirts?

I'm gonna bump this topic back up because I think it's important we keep it goin'. We would love to see more wrestlers come out to South End Wrestling Club. More and more people come every week so there seems to be a legitimate interest. There is bound to be someone you know in the area that's goin' so come on out and gets some mat time in. We have wrestlers from Doss, Desales, Iroquis, Central, PRP, Ballard, Southern, and I think some more.

I said I was goin' to but i've been gettin' dizzy and stuff for no reason lately. So i'm gonna have to sit this one out. It sucks. But i'll be goin' up to watch. Sorry. I was lookin' forward to some greco mat time.

There were a couple of kids that went to Greco today and we had a good showing. we should have even more today for freestyle, its going to be a lot of fun!

We did pretty well. I HAD TO WRESTLE 171!!! That's quite a big jump from my daily weight of about 157. I didn't know I was goin' to be wrestling so I ate a bunch the night before and the morning of the freestyle tourny. I weight 161.4.
