Dear CWC Pee Wee Parents,
As we near the holidays, I wanted to update you on a few things and send out a reminder about our new practice times for the next two weeks, which is something Coach Gumlock announced during last Tuesday's practice.
Holiday Practice Schedule
For the next two weeks we will be unable to hold our pee wee practices at Albemarle High School. To compensate for that, we will be holding a combined practice for all age groups on Monday, Dec 22 and again on Monday, Dec 29. Practices will take place in the UVA Wrestling Room at Onesty Hall. We will have a pee wee coach/coaches present at both of those practices, and we encourage you to join us.
Competition on January 4
The middle school and elementary wrestlers will be travelling to Orange for a match on Sunday, January 4, and they have invited the pee wee wrestlers to join them. We do not require pee wee wrestlers to wrestle in competitions, as many of your children have only recently stepped onto a wrestling mat for the first time. However, this is a good opportunity for our young wrestlers to have some fun and gain experience. Coach Wiles has volunteered to go along and coach any pee wee wrestlers in attendance. (Please note that it will be up to you as parents to organize travel for your children to competitions like this. We will be in touch with more information, including time and location, in the coming weeks.)

Practice Time Change
When we return to the Albemarle High School wrestling room for Tuesday practices after the holidays, our practice start times will be pushed back slightly. Moving forward, we will begin at 6:30 pm and practice until 7:30 pm. The AHS athletic department has asked that we move our practice times back slightly, so as to allow more time for the Albemarle wrestlers to finish their workouts before we start filtering in on Tuesday evenings.
Thank you for helping us get this wrestling season off to a great start in our first few weeks. I hope that you and your families all have safe and happy holidays!
All the best,
