2002  Tryouts

Held in the J-Bldg.  All players must attend tryouts.

Tentative  Dates

Who  Should Try  Out?

All players who would like to join the team must try out.

Generally, we want first-year (new) boys & girls to realize that they DON'T need experience to come out for the team.  We want to encourage everyone who has a desire to come to tryouts.  You should NOT feel intimidated by lack of knowledge about the sport -- many successful players come to us without prior experience.

Returning players need to make sure that they are already in top shape by tryouts -- you have had a season to "test drive" the sport and realize the importance of off-season preparation.  We can expend our limited coaching resources only on students who are serious about wrestling.

Commitment

Each player must be fully committed to the success of the M-A Team.  Commitment to this team includes daily attendance; accountability; initiative towards self-improvement and the team's improvement; and support of, and respect for every team member.  Our success depends upon the commitment we all make to each other both in, and out of school.  The coaches expect every member to participate 6 days per week for every week of the season.  You are expected to adjust your personal schedule to attend the weekend tournaments.
