What to Expect and Consider for the 2021 Skills and Conditioning Season

Governor Waltz has given the GO for youth sports staring in January with some guidelines to follow to ensure the safety of our athletes, families and coaches. Please visit our COVID-19 guideline form.

The Wrestling Director, President and Coaching staff have met to come up with a season plan that will keep our wrestlers active, connected and engaged on the mat. The 2021 season will not be a competitive season but instead focus on technique, skill, form, conditioning and FUN!

*All age groups, K-7th Grade, will practice together will groups alternating activities in and out of the wrestling room
*Wrestlers will be in groups of similar age and size
*Option for older (experienced) wrestlers to stay for a longer practice for a more in-depth practice
*All coaches AND athletes will need to wear a mask at all times
*Coaches and Athletes will be screened for a temperature prior to practice. Temperature will need to be below 100.4
*Hands, wrestling shoes and headgear will be sanitized before and after practice (NO STREET SHOES ALLOWED IN THE WRESTLING ROOM)
*Parents will have to drop off and pick up your athlete, no congregating in the hall
*Athletes will need to bring a personal water bottle
*All athletes will need to shower upon returning home

Growth of Girls Wrestling

In the State on MN each year more and more girls come out to compete on the mat. This growth has began to open up more options for girls to join team not only to compete with the boys but many opportunities to compete with other girls. Last year EAA wrestling had 3 youth girls on the team and we hope to see more join us this season.

Girls who join EAA wrestling will practice and compete with boys. We will also share other local options for those interested to join area all girls leagues.

There is an all Female club that some of our youth girls participate in addition to our EAA team.
