Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion Freestyle/Greco GREATER HEIGHTS 2ND TRAINING SEMESTER

Greater Heights Wrestling second semester of training will kick off on Thursday, May 30th after Memorial Day weekend. Sign ups will be Thursday, May 30th and Monday, June 3rd. Cost of the training semester is $75. If there are wrestlers interested in attending this upcoming semester but cannot make the sign up dates listed then please contact me and I can email you the registration paperwork to secure a spot. The focus area will again be a mixture of Freestyle and Folkstyle as well as total body strength and conditioning specific to building exposiveness, speed, flexibility and agility.

I would like to announce the addition of two new coaches to the Greater Heights coaching staff. Josh Zabel who was an assistant coach, 2X All-American and 2X Academic All-American at Wisconsin - La Crosse and Robbie Hicklin who was a 2X starter and 2X National Qualifier for Lindenwood University have joined the program. In addition, this training session welcomes back several college athletes from Mizzou, Cornell, Northwestern, Iowa, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State to just name some who will be returning to the room training and teaching while they are on break from their respective universities.

All wrestlers with at least one year of wrestling experience, regardless of club affiliation, are welcome to train with Greater Heights. Our training semester is designed so that wrestlers are provided an opportunity to workout two to three times a week learning technique, drilling and wrestling live while having hands on coaching and solid partners. Our program pushes and transforms wrestlers no matter what level they are currently at into being mentally and physically stronger, better technicians and overall tougher competitors.

The tentative training schedule is listed below:

Thursday, May 30th 6-7:45pm (Sign ups) Park Hill HS

Greater Heights practices are being moved to Prairie Point Elementary School starting tonight and will remain there until mid July due to the shutting down of a portion of the high school which includes the wrestling room. Mats have been placed down in the gym at the elementary school so everything is ready to go.

Prairie Point is located just down the street from Park Hill High School off of NW Congress Avenue and NW Belvedere Parkway.

The address of Prairie Point Elementary is 8101 NW Belvedere Pkwy, Kansas City, MO 64152. ‎

I have included a Google Maps link.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to email me. Sorry for the short notice but we just found out this morning that the transition was taking place a week early. Practice time will remain the same from 6-7:45pm.

There will be no Sunday practice due to the ongoing construction at ParK Hill HS and the unavailability of Prairie Point on Sundays. We will make up the training session at a future date this semester. Enjoy your Father's Day weekend and we will see you back on Monday night at Prairie Point Elementary!
