Great to welcome the Mittagong Lions U15 squad to Highlands Sports Centre for an exclusive wrestling session.

Wrestling and rugby have always gone hand in hand — balance, body control, pressure, tackling, reactions, grit and teamwork. It was awesome to see these young athletes challenge themselves in a different environment and have some fun on the mats.

With the rain pouring outside, we were happy to provide a warm and dry space for the team to train 😉

Some drills, some wrestling, some movement skills and plenty of good energy.

Community sport matters. Different sports supporting each other matters. That is how stronger athletes and stronger communities are built.

Our next Wrestling for Rugby Clinic is on June 13. Limited spots available — get yours early.

Happy World Wrestling Day! 🤼‍♂️🔥

Today we celebrate one of the oldest and toughest sports in the world — a sport that builds discipline, resilience, confidence, and respect both on and off the mat.

At Highlands Sports Centre, we are proud to help develop the next generation of wrestlers while creating a strong, family-friendly community for athletes of all ages and levels.

From beginners taking their first steps, to elite international experience on the world stage — wrestling changes lives.

Thank you to all of our athletes, families, coaches, and supporters who continue to grow the sport with us every single day.

Over the past 2 weeks, we had the privilege of delivering 14 wrestling sessions at Frensham Junior School.

For many of these children, this was their first introduction to wrestling — an Olympic sport that develops far more than athletic skills.

Through movement games, partner challenges, reaction drills, and problem-solving activities, the goal was to create an experience that was active, engaging, and memorable.

Wrestling teaches children how to move with confidence, stay balanced under pressure, think quickly, respect their partners, and keep trying when things get difficult. These are lessons that extend well beyond sport.

Seeing the students embrace the challenge, laugh, compete, and support one another was incredibly rewarding.

Receiving this handmade thank-you card from the students was a special reminder of why community sport and physical education matter so much.

A sincere thank you to Frensham Junior School for welcoming us and giving these young students the opportunity to experience something new.

This is exactly the kind of work we love being part of.

Ages 9–13 are one of the most important stages in athletic and personal development.

Research consistently shows that this is a key window for developing coordination, agility, movement efficiency, speed, confidence and sport-specific skills.

It is also the age where kids begin forming deeper understanding of discipline, teamwork, resilience, accountability and self-belief.

That is why we take this stage very seriously at Highlands Sports Centre.

Our programs are not random sessions put together week by week.

We follow structured development principles, combining:
• Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu curriculum
• Wrestling-specific development pathways
• Physical literacy and long-term athlete development concepts
• Age-appropriate progressions based on research and coaching experience

Our goal is to create an environment where kids continue developing physically, emotionally and socially while enjoying the process.

Through Wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu and supplementary training, we help young athletes:
• improve movement and coordination
• build confidence under pressure
• learn discipline and accountability
• develop problem-solving skills
• work with partners and teams
• become more resilient through challenge

We also understand that every child develops differently.

Some mature early.
Some need more time.
Growth spurts, confidence and emotional development all influence the process.

Good coaching at this age can positively shape kids far beyond sport.

That is the environment and standard we are working hard to build every day at Highlands Sports Centre.
