The practices will be intense and advanced training sessions held once per week for serious wrestlers. Each training session will focus on a maximum of three winning techniques, lots of live sparring, and always conclude with intense drills and conditioning. These sessions are designed to develop winning fundamentals and mental toughness needed for becoming a wrestling champion.
This program is intended for advanced and serious wrestlers who are seeking or need a high quality technique and training workout each week throughout the season.
COACHING STAFF

Wrestling - Minimimum enrollment of one month!
One Month $60 per wrestler or $50 per wrestler if more than one family member.

Pallet Donations - I recently purchased $2500 worth of plastic pallets which will be delivered the week of October 3rd. We will place these under the mats and two full size mats will be left out the entire season. They will be taped and ventilated. This will provide for a softer, cleaner, and more safe wrestling surface. Any cash donations to this cause will be graciously accepted!

I apoligize to those of you whom this does not concern.
Eric Akin will not be instructing Sunday September 18th, and there will be no practice at Cokeley's gym.
September 25th is Matside Academy "kickoff" night. It is free for all USAW card members, and cards will be sold there for $30 (2004-2005 cards expired August 31st).
This will be Matside's official sign-up night and parents/coaches meeting. All coaches will be present to meet parents and teach wrestlers on Sunday the 25th. All members who sign-up will receive a Program hand-book and schedule that night as well.
Parents and wresters unable to attend the "kick off" sign up night can download the required forms and program hand-book online at ericakin.com.
Thank you for your time.
Eric Akin
