This time last year, the Peninsula introduced a new wrestling club called "Raider Nation." The idea was to bring back the Peninsula Powerhouse Wrestling, as it was in the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's, starting with our Pee Wees all the way though to our High School Wrestlers.
We met with OVERWHELMING success!! We had 81 kids and every wrestler medaled in one or more tournaments!! The best thing was, we won and had fun doing it!! It is an exciting time in Peninsula Wrestling and we are rebuilding old traditions at Raider Nation.... please come be a part of it!!!
The Raider Nation Wrestling Club is holding their initial sign-ups Monday, March 2nd through Friday, March 6th at Warwick High School from 6pm-8pm.
Practice Starts on 9 March for Middle School and High School Wrestlers. Practice Starts 10 March for Pee Wee Wrestlers.
Practice Schedule will remain constant:
Middle School/High School will practice Mon and Wed from 6-8pm.
Pee Wee Wrestlers will practice Tues and Thurs from 6-8pm.
Raider Nation will be hosting the MAWA Southeastern District tournament, on March 21st. Don't miss out!!!
We are looking for wrestlers ages 4-18 and anyone who has wrestling experience that might want to help coach. If you miss the initial sign-ups, there will be an open sign-up all season long. However, as a start-up club last year, we had 81 kids sign-up for Raider Nation. Because of the INCREDIBLE interest this year we will extend club membership to the first 100 kids in EACH division. So, please sign-up early!
The Head Coach for the High School and Middle School divisions is USA Olympic Wrestling Silver Level Certified Coach Tony White. The Head Coach for the Pee Wees is renowned National Wrestling Coach Steve Pittman. Coach Pittman has coached just about every Virginia AA/AAA State Champion from this area!! And in Raider Nation's first year of existence, he has developed 6 Pee Wee State Champions and 2 National Champions already!! There will be a slew of other very talented coaches in the room as well. All wrestlers and coaches are invited to attend and be a part of this exciting experience.
The club will accept the first 100 kids to sign up in EACH division.
We look forward to seeing any and all who want to improve their wrestling skills and become a competitive force to be reckoned with. I have received an overwhelming amount of interest from wrestlers all over the Tidewater area that are very excited about this new opportunity. The wrestling levels range from Current State Champions to wrestlers who have just started this Year!! We are excited to have them all. Please remember, the first 100 kids in each division are all we will be able to handle. So please don't procrastinate.
