I have been deliberating carefully over the last week over some tough issues. I have been torn between my desire to provide opportunities for our wrestlers to continue wrestling through the spring in Freestyle and Greco Roman and my ability to provide that opportunity in an manner in which a) is economical and b) I will be proud of and c) I will be happy. I have decided to choose the hard right over the easy wrong. We will not be providing Freestyle and Greco Roman wrestling training for new or first year wrestlers. We will allow a few members of Team Gold to participate in small, private sessions. Due to the cost involved in renting from Cumberland County Schools, these sessions will not occur at a Cumberland County School. Team Gold members will be notified separately of practice times and locations.

I am sorry to disappoint those young wrestlers that want to continue wrestling through the spring. I am disappointed that we cannot provide this opportunity at this time as well. We hope to see you all at Wrestling Camp 2010 at Jack Britt High School, July 6-8th. I guarantee you will be impressed with the nationally acclaimed clinician we are bringing in.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. We will announce the time and location of our banquet later this week.
