PA inVAsion Camp
Technique Sessions + College-Style Practices

July 22-25, 2020 

IMPORTANT UPDATE: TOP is offering this camp with strict precautions in place and in adherence with governmental guidelines. When possible, we encourage participants to register with partners who are members of the same household such as parents or siblings (registration fees for non-wrestlers may be waived, unless camp is sold out) or trusted, responsible friends. This summer, for the first time, we are also offering discounts for "Observers" and "Solo Campers" (see more information on discounts).  For those interested in discounted programs, please email us to receive coupon codes.

If camps are cancelled, full refunds will be offered.
The theme of this premier camp is simple: Pennsylvania is often considered to be our country's most dominant wrestling state on many levels, so we invite clinicians from PA to come to Virginia to work with local wrestlers. This will be the 5th annual PA inVA Camp, and it sells out every year!

This high-level camp is geared for experienced and serious wrestlers in high school and middle school, and only advanced/mature elementary wrestlers (4th grade and up).

Each day consists of two technique sessions, Q&A, film study, and an intense "College-Style Practice." The format of this practice may need to be adjusted, compared to prior years, in response to current events.
