Our team is made up of individuals of all genders, experience levels, and ages. Our athletes have a love for competition and continuous improvement.
Our primary goal is to get kids to love wrestling. We will build wrestlers that embrace competition, hold themselves to high expectations, and push themselves to be the best they can be.
Passionate Coaches
Our coaches are committed to continuously learning how to reach and develop young wrestlers to reach their potential. We share our passion for the sport and work to instill accountability, integrity, hard work, and discipline. These are all important life skills that will follow our wrestlers into adulthood.
In addition to our core coaching staff, we invite D1, D2, and D3 collegiate wrestlers to expose kids to different styles and techniques at a high level.
Systematic Approach
Fundamentals and positional awareness are at the core of all wrestling technique. Our coaching system highlights the foundational positions of the sport, and we build upon those foundations to develop high level chain wrestling. We highlight scoring as many points as possible and constantly attacking in all positions.

The coaches work closely with the athletes, breaking down their techniques and helping them to refine their skills. The WDTC also emphasizes the importance of good nutrition, recovery, and mental preparation, ensuring that each athlete is well-rounded and ready to compete at the highest level. This systems-based approach sets the WDTC apart, giving each athlete the best possible chance to succeed.
