2013 Kansas Schoolboy Freestyle/Greco Dual Teams

-We are now preparing for the 2013 Kansas Schoolboy Duals, held June 5th – June 9th in Indianapolis, Indiana. Schoolboy Duals is an exciting opportunity for your young wrestler to grow and mature as a young man and a wrestler. This year we plan to take 2 Greco and 2 Freestyle teams for Team Kansas.

-This is a very tough national competition. Team Kansas has medaled in the top 8 teams of 25 to 30 states’ teams in almost all of the the last several years. We have also had numerous individual medalists.
-We conduct a 2 or 3 day overnight camp in the Kansas City area, then board vans to travel to Indiana for the tournament. We stay in hotels, with adult coaches/chaperones supervising the athletes.

-You must be born in 1999 or 2000 to be eligible to participate.

-The weight classes are: 70, 77, 84, 91, 98, 105, 112, 120, 128, 136, 144, 152, 160, 175, 190, 210, 265

-Each wrestler will receive 2 custom designed Team Kansas singlets, two custom designed tshirts, and a pair of shorts, all designed by Blue Chip Athletics.

- Once delivered to Kansas City, all lodging, transportation, meals, and equipment/apparel is provided by Team Kansas.

-The 2013 National Schoolboy duals give you the opportunity to wrestle up to 15 or more matches in 4 days! It’s a great learning experience and a lot of fun. Please email me with any questions or interest, and I will be contacting many of you as well or talking with you at upcoming tournaments. If you know any other wrestlers born in 1999 or 2000 that are interested have them give me a call or e-mail as well. I will be at many of the upcoming tournaments and will see you there.

Good luck in all your wrestling, and let’s make the 2012 Kansas National Schoolboy team one of the best and make some noise this summer.
