In order to tryout, players must have been cleared through the gold card process.           

Tryouts will take place in the SHS Wrestling Room for all levels (all grades 9-12). 

Please bring a pair of wrestling shoes as you cannot wear everyday shoes on the mat.

Players are expected to be present at all tryout sessions.  Missing sessions will be incorporated into the coach's evaluation of players for the Varsity team.

Tryouts consist of assessments of individual wrestling skills.  Athletes must be willing to work hard and demonstrate maximum effort in all drills.  Strength and conditioning are important aspects of practice.

The coaching staff also tests the athletes for general athleticism.  

Players are also evaluated on their cooperation with other players and their ability to take direction from the coaching staff.

Varsity level wrestling is a commitment of about 2 hours per day, 5-6 days a week with occasional Saturday matches and tournaments.  It is our expectation that athletes will be present for all team tryouts, scrimmages, practices, games, and tournaments. 

Once Competition starts, individual matches go from 4:30 PM-6:30 PM.  Saturday Tournaments are all day.
