On Friday, April 3, more than 60 kids showed up for our Free Clinic Series: From the Bay to the Mat at Fremont High School led by Stanford Wrestling Division I All-American, Nico Provo. The clinic brought together wrestlers of all ages from Sunnyvale Wrestling Club and Fremont High School.

Before the clinic began, wrestlers took part in our Beyond the Mat activity, where they wrote about what wrestling means to them. For many, it was the first time they had been asked to put their passion into words. Wrestlers shared that the sport has helped them build confidence and discipline, while others spoke about finding community and belonging. Their responses offered a glimpse into the impact wrestling has on their lives beyond competition.

We kicked off our spring From the Bay to the Mat series on March 28 at Abraham Lincoln High School in San Francisco. The clinic was led by Beat the Streets Bay Area Associate Program Assistant and Division I All-American wrestler Jaden Abas, who led the session and demonstrated key defensive techniques. More than 35 wrestlers from Lincoln High School, Riordan High School, and the surrounding area showed up ready to train.

We opened with our Beyond the Mat activity, where wrestlers stepped up to share why they love the sport and what it means to them beyond competing. They spoke about the discipline and resilience wrestling demands, and the strong sense of community and belonging they’ve found through their teams.
