The Kansas National Team will begin it's final preparations for the National Tournament held in Fargo, N.D. July 18th - July 24th.

The National Team will begin its training camp on Wednesday, July 14th in McPherson, KS at Central Christian Community College. We will hold check in/registration from 3-6 p.m..

At registration you will need to turn in the consent & waiver form/medical release form if you have not already done so at the National Duals Tournaments. You will also need to take care of any of the remaining total balance of $500 for the trip. This fee includes all meals, gear, and tournament entry fee needed for the tournament. If you plan on sending money, I suggest it only be for spending, for example tshirt or extra snacks.

After registration is complete we will then run a workout that evening.

On Thursday, July 15th USA Wrestling is sending in guest clinician and OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST Henry Cejudo. Henry will be conducting our workouts for the entire day for the team.

On Friday, July 16th the Cadet Age group will be departing in vans driven by the coaching staff from McPherson towards Fargo first thing in the morning and checking into the campus of North Dakota State University later that evening.

On Saturday, July 17th the Junior Age group will be closing up camp at McPherson and departing in vans driven by the coaching staff for Fargo first thing that morning and arriving later that evening.

AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE WRESTLING TOURNAMENT THE COACHES WILL BE DRIVING THE WRESTLERS BACK HOME TO KANSAS WHERE YOU CAN ARRANGE TO PICK UP YOUR WRESTLER WITH THEM AT THAT TIME. DUE TO SOME WRESTLERS BEING OUT OF THE TOURNAMENT BEFORE THE CONCLUSION OF THE TOURNAMENT ON THE 28TH, WE WILL BE MAKING ARRANGEMENTS TO SEND THEM HOME WITH ANOTHER WRESTLER AND HIS/HER PARENTS OR A COACH WILL BE DRIVING THEM HOME AT THAT TIME.


If you have any questions or concerns about the above information please contact me ASAP.

I would also like it if you are for sure going with us to Fargo and HAVE NOT contacted me and expressed your interest to please do so. So far I am counting on everyone that competed on both sets of dual teams and the wrestlers that have already mailed in their information to me as the only wrestlers going? That list includes about 75 wrestlers planning on attending the camp and the national tournament. Please let me know if you are planning on coming!

Thanks for your time.
