Wrestling Equipment
OBGC provides each wrestler with a wrestling singlet to be returned at the end of the season. A $50 deposit check is required at the time of singlet distribution. Each wrestler is responsible for obtaining wrestling shoes and headgear. No street shoes are allowed in the wrestling room or on wrestling mats. Wrestling shoes and headgear may be purchased at local sporting goods stores, online or through mail order catalogs. Wrestlers with braces will need mouth guards.
Practices
All wrestlers should come to practice in appropriate practice clothing (athletic shorts and tight-fitting t-shirt), including headgear and wrestling shoes.
Practices will begin November 14 and will be held weekly on Monday & Wednesday at Sherwood High School. Practices last 2 hours from 6 – 8 p.m. Every effort will be made to ensure kids are matched up by weight/level for practices. More experienced wrestlers may have the opportunity to work with the travel coaches for increased level of training.
Duals/Tournaments
The Outlaws team will participate in the Damascus League from mid December to mid February. Dual meets are held on Saturdays at Baker Middle School. There are many other novice and intramural meets available during the season outside of HCW. More information and opportunities will be shared as available.
