Team-Competition Camp
Register for Camp | Back to Top| Grade 9-12 | July 8-11 | Overnight: $335 | Commuter: $275 |
The team camp is designed around individual competition while using A TEAM CONCEPT that allows campers to participate with their teams. If you attend camp as an individual or in a small group you will be placed on a team. This camp will consist of a combination of technique sessions and dual meets. Each wrestler will have at least 12 matches. Individual and team competitions will be held. Every team will be assigned a VT wrestler to help assist each team’s coach. Your VT Wrestler will critique, analyze and evaluate your team’s progress. After each dual meet your team will spend time working on wrestling fundamentals by doing drills which will improve your teams performance at camp. Coach Dresser and his staff will also spend time going over the mental aspect of the sport which is so crucial to excel in wrestling.
Skills & Drills Camp
Register for Camp | Back to Top| Grade 5-12 | July 11-14 | Overnight: $350 | Commuter: $275 |
This camp is designed for all wrestlers regardless of age or experience level. Campers will be taught wrestling skills in all three positions (neutral, top, bottom). Coach Kevin Dresser has personally designed a curriculum to teach the skills needed to become a great middle or high school wrestler. Campers will be grouped based on experience so they can lean at their own pace. Each day campers will have three technique sessions. For those looking for some hard nosed wrestling an additional optional open mat time will be provided where campers can train along side the Hokie wrestling team. Each day will have at least one recreational activity (swimming, bowling, billiards, arcade, etc).
