Nobody talks about how much a well-timed fireman's or a clean dump changes a match — until you've drilled it enough that it's automatic. The Fort Fireman's & Dumps Camp is March 29th, two sessions (10am–12pm and 1pm–3pm), $40–$50 with or without lunch. Sign up at https://fortwrestling.com/camps

I tried getting pictures of everyone, but with so many matches going on there’s no way to be at every mat at once! 😅 A great problem to have when Panther Wrestling keeps growing!

ATTENTION ALL wrestling families!

As we wrapped up the final youth club folkstyle practice last night I’m already thinking of the future, our program, and the best ways to give each athlete the opportunity to reach their goals. I would love to put together some kind of schedule for open mat/conditioning opportunities for ALL wrestlers interested this spring/summer. What are spring/summer sports practice times and schedules look like? DM me if you can with any info so I can try to create a schedule that will work with other spring/summer sports.

I’d also like to give a quick shout out to the MIDDLE SCHOOL WRESTLERS! Defeating Lakeland last night in a dual meet 50-33!
Let’s all continue to support our Middle school wrestlers who are still grinding it out in their regular season. This group of kids is very special and they make it exciting to be apart PH wrestling. 💪🏻

Thanks
