Predator Wrestling 2012-2013
Thank you for expressing interest in
joining the LOUYAA Predator Wrestling family. Prior to signing on
the dotted line, we would like to inform you of what you are committing your
child and yourself to.
We are a small organization with a
approximately 100 wrestlers, therefore, everyone must contribute
to ensure a successful and fun filled season for our children. There will be a
volunteer/singlet deposit
in the form of a $75 undated check to be returned if the family volunteers for
the minimum amount of
time required per family and the singlet is returned at the end of the season
intact. Volunteer time may
include moving and setting up mats, concession help, table help at home matches
and there are various
other activities requiring volunteers. All families will be required to
participate in the volunteer program.
The parents have always done a GREAT job in the past and I expect no less this
year. There will be a
volunteer schedule made out prior to our first HOME meet.
In addition to the normal registration
fee you will be required to purchase wrestling shoes ($30+) and
headgear ($20+) from a sporting goods store of your choice. Some wrestling
shoes are available from
our shoe bank. We will provide a wrestling singlet as stated above for use in
our matches, and a Predator
T-shirt that the wrestler can keep.
We will be holding a parents only
meeting in early November (tentative date is Monday, November 5th
at Urbana High School cafeteria from 7-8 pm) to welcome you, introduce you to
the coaching staff, explain
the volunteer program, share our wrestling philosophy and provide any other
information that you may require.
Our first meet will be the weekend of
January 5, 2013. All meets are held on Sundays and last between 4-6
hours. Home matches require setting up and taking down of mats and equipment,
table help, concession help,
and clean up, and away matches require travel time (up to an hour each way) plus
the 3 to 4 hours of wrestling
time. All wrestlers will wrestle a minimum of 2 matches and as many as 4-5
matches. The season concludes in
mid-March (weekend of March 9th) with a league championship
tournament.
Your wrestling fee also includes all
tournament entry fees that we enter as a team. Most tournaments are
held in the month of December in preparation of the regular season start in
early January. There will be
tournaments
for all including beginner and experienced. I will provide a full list of
tournaments we will be
participating in at
the parent meeting. Participation in pre-season tournaments is not required,
but highly
recommended to get
the kids accustomed to wrestling a match or to just “knock the rust off”.
Our wrestling practices will start the
week of November 12th. The kids are typically broken into 4 squads
based on level of experience, weight, and age. Squads practice twice a week
Monday thru Friday in the evenings
from 6-8 pm. Our practices are held in 3 locations: Oakdale High School
Wrestling room, Urbana High School
Wrestling room, and our private facility located in Ijamsville off of Prices
Distillery Road. I will hand out a
practice schedule at the parent meeting and each wrestler will be assigned a
squad.
Please do not hesitate to call me if
you have any questions (Cell: 703-898-2346) or feel free to email me at
wrestling@luyaa.org.
Thank You,
Doug Makosy
Wrestling Commissioner
