First Season of Wrestling

The boys started their first run at wrestling this winter. There were lots of tears at the meets at first, but they have made huge improvements. I don't understand or probably appreciate wrestling, but I think it teaches wonderful life skills. It also has been great to get the boys active during the winter time. It is a big commitment- We are at the gym four nights a week. 

 Working hard at warm-ups.
 Playing "Sumo"

 Hunter loves playing the "steal the shirt" game at practice.

For Wednesday night meets, Carter had a hard time finding kids to wrestle that were similar in size. A few times the Salem club came out to wrestle and Carter made a friend, Tase. Carter was a little bigger and had an advantage but they made a good pair and have been able to wrestle several times.
