Cavalier Wrestling Club Weekly Update

Dear CWC Parents,
Wow, what a great day of wrestling we had today! Thank you to everyone who made the trip to William Monroe High School for our matches against Greene County and Madison County. I believe that nearly all of our wrestlers got at least three matches, and some got as many as five or six! Most importantly, all of our wrestlers seemed to be enjoying themselves. More than anything, that is what makes us coaches happy.
 
I have several important announcements this week, including a schedule change and a match cancellation. Please continue reading below.
 
Elementary/Middle School practice canceled on Tuesday: Due to the UVA Men's Basketball game, this week's Tuesday night (Advanced) practice at UVA will be cancelled. (Next week's Tuesday night practice (Jan. 19) at UVA will also need to be cancelled for the same reason.) PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IN NO WAY AFFECTS PRACTICE FOR PEE WEE WRESTLERS. PEE WEE PRACTICE WILL TAKE PLACE AT CHARLOTTESVILLE HIGH SCHOOL AS SCHEDULED.
 
Thursday night match against Covenant, POSTPONED: In last week's update, I included a schedule of future competitions. That schedule listed a match against the Covenant School's Youth Wrestling Club slated for this Thursday evening. That match has been postponed and will now be held in conjunction with our match against Appomattox immediately preceding the UVA vs. Duke wrestling match in Memorial Gymnasium on Friday, January 22. Please see the updated schedule below for more information.
 
Match next Saturday against Waynesboro: The CWC will be hosting Waynesboro Youth Wrestling Club for a match in the UVA Wrestling Room next Saturday. The match is for all ages, and it will begin at 11 am. Additional details will be forthcoming later in the week. Pee Wee wrestlers who are interested in attending, please contact Coach Walker (jdw244@hotmail.com), and Elementary/Middle School Wrestlers, please contact Coach Kammauff (john.kammauff@varian.com).
 
Singlets: If you were given a singlet at today's wrestling match, please do your best to wash it and return it to Coach Chris Wiles during practice on Monday evening (or Tuesday for Pee Wee wrestlers). If, for whatever reason, you will be unable to wash the singlet prior to practice this week, please email Coach Wiles, at chris.wiles@stvfd.org, to let him know.
 
Casino Night: One of the CWC's most important (and fun) events of the year, Casino Night, is coming up on Saturday, January 30. More information will be coming out this week, but please purchase your tickets for the evening now using this link: http://cavalier.ticketleap.com/casino-night-2016/
 
Future Competitions:
  • Saturday, Jan. 16, at 11 am - Match with Waynesboro in the UVA Wrestling Room (CWC wrestlers should arrive by 10:30 am.)
  • Friday, Jan 22, at 4 pm - Matches against Covenant Youth Wrestling Club and Waynesboro Wrestling Club. These matches will take place in Memorial Gymnasium immediately preceding UVA's match against Duke. In between the CWC matches and the college match, the CWC will provide pizza for all wrestlers. All CWC wrestlers are encourage to stay for the college match to cheer on the Hoos!
  • Tuesday, Feb. 2 at (Time TBD) - Tri-Meet with Wilson Memorial (Middle School Wrestlers Only)
  • More to come...

 

Here's to another great week of wrestling!

 

All the best,

Josh Walker
