Husky Youth 

Wrestling

EAU CLAIRE NORTH YOUTH WRESTLING PROGRAM

Our first youth practice will be Monday, December 11, 2023 at North High School!

Wrestling is a foundation sport that instills confidence, teaches self-defense, helps you improve in other sports, teaches toughness, has kids compete against opponents of similar size and experience, and is fun!  The sport of wrestling is the ultimate competition where two individuals take their individual strengths and match them up against one another.  It is a battle of technique, speed, agility, flexibility, strength, wits, and toughness and once you have wrestled, everything else in life is easy!
