Good morning CWC Families,

We are excited to be a part of the Richmond Metro Youth Wrestling League this year!

Sign up for the RMYWL clinic at http://www.cavalierwrestlingclub.org/shop/EVENT by THURSDAY, JANUARY 4. The $35 will get you in to the clinic, as well as all of the RMYWL matches. If you do not want to participate in the clinic, but decide later you want to participate in a match, we can add you to the roster later, but you must register for the clinic by January 4.

January 7 Clinic Details
  • Location: Deep Run High School - 4801 Twin Hickory Rd, Glen Allen, VA
  • Registration begins at 10 am (wrestlers will weigh in so we have weights for future matches)
  • Clinic runs from 11 am - 1 pm

  • Light concessions will be offered
Please sign up on our website by the deadline. You can NOT register at the door or after January 4. Go to the sign up on our website for additional details about the league.

We hope to see many of you register for the clinic! As a reminder, normal practice resumes Monday, January 1.

CWC Families,

We hope your wrestlers have enjoyed the first week of practice! Please continue to sign them in and out of practice each day on the sign in sheet in the wrestling room. Also, please enter through the back of Memorial Gym on the side nearest the parking garage. The door will be propped open at least 10 minutes before practice. If you missed the first day of practice parent meeting, I have attached an outline of what Coach Jimmy and Coach Trent discussed. 

We will be ordering our annual free CWC T-shirt soon, so FILL OUT THIS FORM to let me know your children's sizes. Please have this done by Wednesday, December 6.

If you did not get a chance to order singlets, shirts, etc. from our NEW TEAM STORE, this is the LAST AND FINAL CHANCE! They have not closed it down yet, but our online store will officially close tonight 12/1 at midnight, so place your orders now! https://cavalierwrestlingclub.itemorder.com/shop/home/

If you are interested in helping our coaches on the mat, we welcome all parents. You are required by USA Wrestling to have a background check and Safe Sport training to be on the mat. To do this, log in to your account at  https://www.usawmembership.com/. Create your own profile, and follow the directions to complete the background check and Safe Sport training. Email me a photo of your card or usaw# once this is completed.

I have attached a flyer for a TOURNAMENT OPPORTUNITY next Saturday, December 9 in Lynchburg. Registration is due on trackwrestling by Friday 12/8 at 8:00 p.m. There will be a CWC coach at this tournament. Feel free to email me or talk to a coach before/after practice if you have questions about tournaments. Also please email me to let me know if you have signed up, so our coaches know who is coming.

Have a great weekend!
