Season Feb 1st through April 26th (around there) as long as the Governor allows it. Look out for our post next week when Registration Opens.

Leave a comment

Sunday, February 2nd is the league’s annual SJWL Varsity tournament. It will be held at Moorestown High School.

7:00AM ➔ Doors open
7:45AM ➔ Final check-in
8:00AM ➔ Weigh-ins conclude
9:00AM ➔ Wrestling begins

Our varsity wrestlers competing in this weekend’s tournament have already been notified, so there shouldn’t be any confusion as to who’s wrestling and who’s not.

They should also already know the weight class in which they’ll be competing. But, if anybody still isn’t sure, or if there are other questions, contact a coach right away.

We’d like to wish all of our wrestlers, their families, our supporters, and the rest of our community a Happy New Year! This is the beginning of a brand new year, a brand new decade, so let’s start off on the right foot.

That being said, here’s what’s happening over the next several days…

Middle School practices will be Thursday 1/2 and Friday 1/3 after school.
Tots practice will be Thursday 1/2 at 6:00PM.
Bantams/Midgets practice will be Thursday 1/2 at 7:00PM.

Sunday 1/5 will be a home match. Some wrestlers will need to arrive at 8:30AM, everybody else at 11:30AM. That will be decided soon and notifications will be sent out. There will be a separate news post update about this Sunday’s match as soon as all of the details are finalized.

Also, we need help with the concession stand, admissions, table workers, etc. If you’re able to help out with anything, please let us know.

Great Job This Past Weekend

I want to congratulate all of our wrestlers for their performances this weekend. Some even wrestled both Saturday and Sunday, and I love the dedication!

Congratulations to all of our winners. And for those who may not have won a match this weekend, keep your heads high and move forward.

This was just the first tournament weekend of the season for us, and there will be plenty more to come. Focus on what we can do to perform better next time, and work harder in practice.
