This coming Thursday the 21st will be a middle school match at Carusi Middle School.

We need to leave Gloucester by about 3:15pm. We need to arrange rides, so please let coaches know if you can help out.

TODAY’S LESSON

Sun, Dec 17, 2017, 20:39PMFri, Jan 5, 2018, 12:41PMLeave a comment

Rough start today, but it’s the growing pains that we go through each year. If we keep working hard every day, some of these matches we lose by a couple points will turn into wins, and the one sided losses will turn into competitive matches.

We have a good thing going. Our HS team won the conference last year, we have over 40 kids wrestling with us on the Middle School team, and we have a great coaching staff from HS down to the tots. Don’t get discouraged if you had a rough day today. We will get better.

For middle school, practice tomorrow through Weds. Match on Thursday. Off Friday through Monday, and Tuesday is Colls Christmas tournament. GO LIONS!!!

We will be hosting a HS Varsity Tourney on Saturday Dec 23rd and HS JV Tourney on Tuesday Dec 26th. We’ll need help with the snack stand and working the door. Any help is appreciated. If you’re willing to help for an hour or two, please let us know.

Also we’d like to have as many of our wrestlers there as possible to support the HS kids on Dec 23rd. It’ll be good for the boys to watch HS wrestling and learn more about the sport. On Dec 26th, we’ll be taking a group of our kids to the Collingswood MS tournament. It’s an early tournament, so if you can’t make it, please let us know now.

MATCH THIS SUNDAY 12/17 AT SHAWNEE HIGH SCHOOL

Sunday’s match is at Shawnee HS

8 & under is 8:15 check-in; 9 am start
9 & older is 11:15 check-in; 12 pm start

Varsity Duals team weigh-ins are 10 am (wrestling Wash Twp at 11 am and Shawnee at 12 pm). We’re still waiting on the opposing teams rosters to see how many kids will be wrestling Varsity on Sunday.

For a lot of kids, it’s their first time on the mat this season or ever, so we’d rather try and get them more competitive matches in the JV portion then throw them right into the Varsity duals if we dont have to. Bare with us, we’re working out wrestle offs for each weight, and figuring out who fits best in which session.

WEAR YOUR LONG-SLEEVED SHIRTS TO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY

All wrestlers should wear their long-sleeved uniform shirts to school on Friday 12/15. Support the team and spread the word – this Sunday is our first match of the season.

Parents, relatives, siblings, friends, and every other GCYW supporter should also wear some Gloucester Wrestling gear on Friday as well!

REGISTRATION FORM ONLINE IS STILL MALFUNCTIONING, BUT PAYMENT BUTTONS WORK FINE

Mon, Nov 20, 2017, 19:12PMFri, Jan 5, 2018, 12:54PMLeave a comment

Many parents have reported errors with the registration form when trying to register online. We’ve confirmed that the form isn’t working properly. We’ve also confirmed that the error is not ours, but rather somewhere up the line involving AWS and DocHub.

DocHub support has assured us that they are working diligently to correct this problem, and they expect that it won’t be more than a few days longer. We’re keeping our fingers crossed!

In the meantime, you can still print the forms (you just can’t fill out and sign them online). Also, the payment buttons are working just fine and are not connected to the error that’s affecting the form. So, even if you have to fill out a paper registration form, you can still use the buttons on the Registration page to make your payment.

We appreciate your patience while we continue to try working through this technical glitch, and we will post an update as soon as everything is back up and running smoothly!
