This video is a good highlight video of a youth wrestler. It gives you an idea of what a 7 year old kid is capable of when wrestling and when well coached at a young age. Usually you do not see this level of wrestling at a youth wrestling match for this reason I posted these highlights on my blog. Enjoy.
This is a great youth wrestling move. The hip heist is highly effective for both youth and high school wrestlers and this coach teaches the skill very well.
This youth wrestling match is a match between two six year olds. You will see good examples of Head Throws and Body Locks of Bear hugs. Show this match to all of your youth wrestlers and it will help them learn to fight harder and it will show them how a kid their same age correctly does a head throw.
Thanks for all of your involvement in the great sport of youth wrestling.
"In “Coaching Young Couch Potatoes,” Michael Clapier teaches coaches what I call Primary Greatness (character/values) as opposed to the traditional Secondary Greatness (winning is everything) as an effective way to mentor young athletes.
I have always believed that winning is only one of many goals set by a wise coach to develop a balanced young man or woman. How valuable it would be if coaches nurtured, inspired vision, and instilled character development into young athletes so they could apply these lessons not only in sports but to life’s experiences."

“I have owned the Championship Access discs for three years and I have to tell you, they work. My kids connect with them and we have been able to help our new coaches clearly understand what we are teaching through every level of our program.”

"Every kid in our program loves technology and my biggest problem is keeping the discs in my bag. They borrow them all the time. They are great!"
