<p> FC PRIDE WRESTLING CLUB About: The Pride Wrestling Club (PWC) is a non-profit organization designed to support and act as a feeder program to the Highland Hills and Floyd Central wrestling teams. </p><p>Who: The club is open to all students grades K-8th. Our program is suited to fit both beginning and advanced wrestlers.</p><p>What: The main focus is to teach your child the sport of wrestling but they will also learn much more. Wrestlers will learn important skills such as balance, agility and strength that can really benefit them in any sport they play.</p><p>When: PWC begins on December 1st and ends the beginning of March. Practices are every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 6:30 – 8:00pm. There will be numerous opportunities for your child to actually compete on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the season. Every tournament is different and costs usually range from $8 to $15 dollars. Some are local and others require 1-2 hours of travel. </p><p>Mandatory Participation: All wrestlers will be required to attend (4) meets throughout the season and attend 80% of the practices. This is to assure that the wrestlers maintain the course of learning the curriculum and don’t fall behind. If a wrestler does not meet these requirements they will be removed from the team and forfeit all fees paid. </p><p>Where: Floyd Central Wrestling Room, located in the upstairs of the Auxiliary Gym.</p><p>USA Wrestling Card: In the past we have been able to sell/provide USA Wrestling cards onsite. This year you must go online to www.iswa.com to purchase a USA Wrestling Card. The cost is $35. This is the organization that provides insurance for our club and each individual wrestler. You must provide proof of purchase (a receipt or your USA Card) in order to participate in practices. This will be strictly enforced!
