The wrestling season does not end with the Mayor’s Cup or the City Championships

The Olympic styles of Freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling come alive. The opportunities begin for learning and refining those styles, applying them in various situations: clinics; developmental and City Wide tournaments; traveling on NYC teams; or competing at national competitions. Listed in this flyer are the 2010 scheduled NYC Freestyle and Greco clinics; along with local, regional and national tournament dates and sites. This schedule has been designed to facilitate introduction and training of wrestlers to Freestyle and Greco-Roman. All events should be checked on Beat the Streets website: www.beat-the-streets.org. Getting good training and competition is vital to one’s development in Freestyle wrestling and Greco-Roman wrestling. Training and competing in City, State and National events will greatly enhance one’s skills and knowledge of the sport. The Goal is to offer you training and competitive situations that will greatly improve your wrestling skills and knowledge. No matter what your level of wrestling, no matter what your skills are, the key to success is constantly striving to learn more. You are either moving forward or backward… there is no such thing as staying the same. See you at the TOP!!! Coaches and Officials are needed. If you can provide coaching assistance, contact Mike Torriero. If you want to become a ref, contact Bill Crum. Both can be reached at 212-777-5702.
