Scheduling Updates ⚠

You’ve surely heard by now that as of tomorrow our district will be switching to a half-day schedule, which will remain until at least January 14th.

So, at least for the foreseeable future, Middle School practices will be from 2:15PM – 4:15PM.

Evening practices for our Youth and Tots wrestlers should remain unchanged.

Obviously, the situation is volatile so we don’t know what, when, how, or even if more changes will be coming down the line.

Pay close attention to the Remind text messages from coaches because those are easy and typically sent immediately after we receive new information. Also, new relevant information is typically shared through the news feed within 24hrs, so check back here regularly. It’s helpful if you opt to use the Follow GCYW button in the sidebar of most pages.

If you have any questions, check through the news feed here for recent updates that may contain relevant answers. Otherwise, use the general contact form or send an email to your coach and one of us will get back to you as soon as we can.

This coming Monday, March 1st, marks the official start of the 2021 wrestling season. 

If you signed up your son or daughter for our youth wrestling program, practices are already scheduled and we encourage you to bring them out. 

Practices, matches, and other calendar events are always visible on our Schedule page. We also recommend using the Follow GCYW button to sign up for news feed updates so you’ll never be out of the loop. 

Middle School Practice Update

Start time for middle school practices (Mon, Tues, Thurs) has been moved up to 4:30PM.

All other practice times remain the same.

Parents, please remember that you cannot drop off or pick up your child from the side street. This is very important. If you want to walk your child up to the building, you must park your vehicle in the parking lot and walk to the entry door.

Also, remember that parents and siblings are not permitted to remain in the building during any of the practices. Once you have brought your child to the room, you must exit the building. You cannot return until practice has concluded.

We appreciate your understanding and flexibility as we continue to strive for a safe and functional practice environment.

Practice Starts Next Week

We are in the process of finalizing practices and making arrangements so we can get started next week.

Keep an eye on our Schedule page. The calendar there will be updated with practice times.

For health and safety reasons, we must break into multiple groups. Practices on the calendar will be labeled accordingly. We will inform you which group you are in later this week.
