As this is my first time coaching high school in RI, I was curious as to whether there are any JV Wrestling Tournament opportunities?
I wrestled my high school career at North Attleboro High School and for many years, we hosted a JV "State" Tournament. It was open to any and all teams to allow their JV wrestlers to compete for a title. This was held on Martin Luther King Day and the North Attleboro varsity wrestlers were required to run the tables...many moons ago, I remember even refereeing the matches.
Outside of this tournament, we used to send our JV team to Marshfield Holiday JV, which ran the day prior to the varsity tournament. I remember having an early morning practice for varsity and we would all pile into a few vehicles and drive up to cheer on the JV Squad.
I would love to get more information on this if possible and if not, I would love to work with anyone near Davies Tech to set something up. I would love to do it myself, but we currently only have one mat and limited gym space for the time being. I would like to set something up in the future, even if it ends up being next year. I feel strongly that competition is always good competition. I also remember the team bonding this created for my team at NA by cheering on the JV guys and girls. I also remember being a freshman and how awesome it felt to have my varsity squad cheering me on.
Let me know!
