VIRGINIA IS FOR CHAMPIoNS
TECHNIQUE CAMP
PLUS OPTIONAL "COLLEGE-STYLE PRACTICES"

AUGUST 13-16, 2018

We want to thank the coaches at Virginia Tech, UVA, and George Mason for supporting and helping to make this superb camp a reality!

DESCRIPTION

This is a premium camp for experienced/serious high school and middle school wrestlers, plus advanced elementary wrestlers (4th grade and up). It is comprised of two technique sessions per day, plus an optional "College-Style Practice" later in the afternoon.

The "College-Style Practice" (CSP) is an intense 90 minute practice under the direction of college coaches and wrestlers. Techniques learned earlier in the day will be reviewed and reinforced through drilling, live situations, play wrestling, and live go's.

This camp has now been held for two years and was a big success both times. In 2018, featured clinicians included Frank Molinaro (2016 Olympian, NCAA champion, and current coach at Virginia Tech), George DiCamillo (2017 NCAA finalist from UVA), and Sahid Kargbo (George Mason University coach; 2017 NCAA qualifer, elite Greco wrestler). Camp counselors included UVA all-american and U23 World Team member Jack Mueller (133 lbs.), Virginia Tech all-american and U23 World Team member David McFadden, Junior world team member Mekhi Lewis, Mat Savvy Wrestling Club's Logan Savvy, D2 NCAA champion Dan Scanlan (founder, Scanlan Wrestling Academy), and Garrett Griffith (former GMU and UMD wrestler).

In 2017, George DiCamillo and Sahid Kargbo, along with 2012 Olympian and Virginia Tech coach Jared Frayer, were the featured clinicians.
