About Us
We are a Youth Wrestling Club, based in Cookeville, TN. We are a fairly new organization which is growing slowly. We are in the process of raising money to build a training facility to practice and hold dual and quad meets for our kids close to home. It seems as though our sport is not quite as popular as some of the major sports like Football, Basketball, etc....so our potential to raise money and support our program has been extremely difficult. We also have continuous logistic problems competing with the other sports for gymnasium space, for practice and meets. These problems not only effect our program but our Middle School and High School programs as well. We have been granted permission to build a training facility on County School property but are having trouble raising the last $20,000.00 for approval to break ground. Any donations would be greatly appreciated. Donations would help many young boys and girls the opportunity to train and advance in a growing sport in our community.

Our main objective for this fiscal year are to grow our sport, teach good basic wrestling, instilling discipline,helping kids with their academics, and building a new training facility.
Recent Accomplishments
Our most recent accomplishments this year were, 1 southeast national champion, 1 4th place finisher, and several 5 and 6 place finishers at the southeast AAU National tournament.
