Wrestling is a sport in which dedication and desire
usually pays off. Unlike some other sports, size is not
that important. Wrestling is about building character,
self confidence, and self satisfaction with one’s
achievements. Wrestling helps a young person find out
how far he can take it past his own limits. Wrestling
helps build the kind of character that leads to a
productive adult life. Wrestling develops discipline,
stamina, self control, and conditioning. Wrestling is
an individual sport; you can not rely on your teammates
to wrestle for you. Each individual has to go out on
the mat and face his opponent on his own.
Objectives are to teach the wrestlers the skills
necessary to compete in the sport of wrestling, improve
overall fitness level, and to achieve a competence level
that commands respect.
The
MVAA is a volunteer organization; we need administrative
and coaching help. Anyone interested in volunteering
should contact us.
