The Best Wrestler

The tournament portion of our Athens, Greece trip is complete, and what an incredible experience it was! 🇬🇷🤼

Our wrestlers competed against new styles, faced tough international competition, and gained experience that you simply cannot recreate inside your own wrestling room.

The tournament may be over, but our journey through Greece continues. More posts from the cultural side of this unforgettable trip are coming soon!

What an incredible camp with Joel Adams and Georgi Ivanov!

The kids had a blast, laughed hard, and learned a ton. But for me, this one meant a little more.

Joel brought back so many old memories—long practices, hard lessons, big dreams, and plenty of laughter along the way. I remember coaching him as a young wrestler, helping him grow and watching him chase greatness.

Now, seeing him step onto the mat and pour that knowledge back into the next generation—that’s what full circle looks like.

You coach them. You believe in them. Then one day, they stand beside you and start building the next group of champions.

That’s bigger than wrestling.

Thank you, Joel, for giving back. And thank you to every wrestler, parent, and coach who made this camp special!

Be The Best. 🤼‍♂️

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: LOCATION #15 IS OFFICIAL! 🚨

The Best Wrestler is coming to State College, Pennsylvania—and Coach Jason Nickal will lead the way!

This is not just another location. This is a major step forward.

Coach Nickal brings 30 years of experience, has helped lead teams to six state championships, mentored more than 40 individual state champions, and earned 11 Coach of the Year awards.

He is a proven leader. A teacher. A developer of champions.

As the head boys wrestling coach at State College Area High School—and the father of former Penn State standout and MMA athlete Bo Nickal —Jason understands what it takes to develop athletes at the highest level. But more importantly, he understands that wrestling is about more than winning matches.

It is about determination.
Teamwork.
Discipline.
Continuous improvement.

Through this partnership, wrestlers in the State College area will gain expanded access to elite club training, world-class camps, high-level competition, and overseas wrestling tours.

Jason sent us this personally:

“State College Wrestling Club is excited to join The Best Wrestler in a new partnership. Together, we will provide expanded opportunities for wrestlers in the State College area, including club training, camps, and overseas tours.

We look forward to helping athletes grow on and off the mat through high-level coaching, competition, and memorable experiences.”

Fifteen locations. One system. One mission.

To serve and develop people, so that we can live in a better world.

State College, Pennsylvania—welcome to The Best Wrestler family!

Let’s build something special. Let’s develop champions. Let’s change lives.

THIS IS BIGGER THAN WRESTLING.

Six years ago, we were giving private lessons in McClelland, Iowa.

Today, The Best Wrestler has 14 locations and growing around the world.

We’ve been blessed. And there comes a point in the entrepreneurial journey where success can’t just be about growing your business.

It has to be about growing your community.

So we asked ourselves:

What if money was no longer a reason a high school kid couldn’t get world-class training?

Effective immediately, our Future Olympians High School Program is 100% FREE at three locations:

📍 Iowa West Fieldhouse — Council Bluffs, IA
📍 Mount Michael HS — Elkhorn, NE
📍 Lincoln Northwest HS — Lincoln, NE

An Olympic system. A proven track record. Great training partners. Great facilities.

FREE.

No contracts.
No minimum attendance.
No strings attached.
No requirement to wrestle for us.

Represent your school. Represent your club. Stay with your coach.

Just come get better.

Even if we’ve been rivals. Even if our coaches haven’t always agreed. Even if you never wear a Best Wrestler singlet.

The kids have to be bigger than our egos.

If we can remove a financial barrier, open a door, and help one more kid chase something they once thought was impossible—then we’re doing what we were put here to do.

Our mission is simple:

To Serve and Develop People, So That We Can Live in a Better World.

If you know a high school wrestler who could benefit from this, TAG THEM.

If you’re a coach, SHARE THIS with your athletes.

If you believe more kids deserve access to opportunity, HELP US SPREAD THE WORD.

And if you’re a high school wrestler ready to work:

COME TRAIN. THE DOOR IS OPEN.

BE THE BEST.
