No need to be there to be apart. Raffle tickets are bought through me and I will send a pic of your ticket and numbers and if you aren’t present will be notified if you win and sent the money either cash or digital. The co****le tournament is a fun way to hang out while we do the raffle. Food and beverages will be catered. Thanks for the support.

Ok this a memo I hope not only reaches every parent and kid of mine. But also others.

💧 WRESTLERS — DRINK YOUR WATER.

I say this constantly in the room, but I need our wrestlers AND parents to understand how important hydration is.

Our room gets HOT. I can tell when kids come into practice already under-hydrated. They start fading, their reactions slow down, their technique gets sloppy, and mentally they just aren’t as sharp.

Water doesn’t just affect how your BODY performs. It affects your BRAIN too.

When you’re properly hydrated, you give yourself a better chance to:

• Maintain energy and endurance
• Regulate your body temperature
• Stay focused and attentive
• React and make decisions quicker
• Maintain coordination and technique as you get tired
• Recover better after practice

And here’s the important part:

Hydration doesn’t start when you walk into practice.

Chugging a bottle of water after you’re already exhausted isn’t the same as showing up properly hydrated. Drink water throughout the day—at school, at home, before practice, during practice and afterward.

Wrestling is already hard enough. Don’t make your body fight dehydration at the same time it’s fighting another wrestler.

I can coach your technique. I can push your conditioning. I can help develop your wrestling IQ.

But I can’t drink the water for you. 😂

Take care of your body so your body can perform when you ask something from it.

💧 HYDRATION IS PART OF TRAINING.

I haven’t posted this yet and should have. Sabrina Perry and Dillon Perry made our artwork for the gym with lights to go with it. Unlike the last one this one is forever and we can move it as needed. They always go above and beyond for the gym and my family and coaches are beyond grateful.

Also wanted to give a thanks to Kami Johnson, Josh Johnson and their family for giving us shelving in the bathroom. Thank you guys for everything.

Youth wrestling doesn’t exist without commitment from kids, coaches and parents. I wouldn’t exist without any one of them. Thanks to everyone who supports us.

One thing about us. We are gonna push your kids to their limits. Kids can do hard things and we grow through suffering in healthy ways. My practices aren’t gonna be easy. The room is gonna be hot. We are gonna work for everything and we get. We are going to build grit and character. Tears are temporary the lessons are forever. We are gonna win the third in my gym.

Starting September I will have advanced practicing with hs as hs transitions to school practices. September advanced will be an entire month of leg riding technique. If you want to learn to ride legs correctly we will see you then.

Proud of all the Hooligans who competed this weekend. It was very tough competition and none of them backed down, win or lose.

Dexter Herndon is going into his second year and his attitude after losses made me happy. He was willing to toe the line no matter who was across from him.

Most impressive to me this weekend was Jeremiah, or JJ as I call him. He just started a few months ago and the growth in the last month has been incredible. I’m really starting to see the gears turning. He got his first wins in his first tournament.

Zahra and Leah wrestled 15U girls duals, probably the toughest girls division there, and battled hard. Zahra also wrestled 12U duals and turned her weekend around going 3-1.

The Phillips boys all had good weekends, but what stood out most was Luke and Waylon’s attitude after losses. I feel like I’ve really connected with those two. Aidan continues to lead his siblings with character and effort every day.

Leilani wrestled the boys division in a tough bracket. I honestly think she’s only a couple mental steps away from being really hard to beat. The talent is there, and once she believes it herself, she’s going to be tough for anyone.

Zacharia is improving at a really high rate. Every tournament I see something new. Now it’s just about letting loose, not worrying about the results, and going score points.

Braxton Nalley gave me my first chance to really watch him compete. I saw some good growth and now have a clear direction on what we need to work on.

Anise Henry wrestled 15U girls open. I think with just a few corrections we could get those matches back. She’s a great student who works hard and always wants to learn.

Garth Perry had a tough start in 7U duals, but by the end of the day I finally saw the Garth I see in practice. I think the nerves from being away from competition got him early.

Liam Fletcher wrestled 7U duals and the open. He’s newer to the room but already picked up some good wins. He battles hard and has talent you can’t teach. His brother Luke is the same way. Great family.

Brett Shaffer was in every match and battled every time he stepped on the mat. I also love how he responds after losses. His dad coaches too, and it shows.

Braxton Strait picked up some good wins and handles both wins and losses the right way. I haven’t coached him much yet, but I’m excited to going forward.

I think that’s everyone off the top of my head. Thanks to every parent for trusting me with your kids. I’ll keep doing everything I can to help them improve.
