1) The purpose of this program is to introduce kids to the sport of wrestling and/or prepare kids for middle and high school level wrestling.  Kids must be in kindergarten to fifth grade and within Fayette County to participate (some exceptions may be granted).  

​

2)  Dues for the regular season: $350 per kid (scholarships available to those who qualify)

​

3)  All wrestlers must fill out a registration form. Please fill out the form even if you have filled it out in past seasons. 

​

4)  Required equipment:  athletic shorts / pants, tee shirt, and wrestling shoes.  Mouthpieces are required for those with braces.  For some tournaments (discussed below), the wrestlers will be required to wear headgear.  PTC Wrestling Club branded singlets and / or two-piece uniforms will be provided to wrestlers to “borrow” for tournaments and meets.  All wrestlers will be given a PTC Wrestling Club t-shirt to keep.  

 

5)  Practices for the 2026/2027 season will generally be held two days per week and divided into beginner and advanced groups (during the week but not on Fridays) from 6:00 – 7:30 PM. Kids will have to test to be in the advanced group. Practices will be held at the wrestling room at Stars Mill High School (193 Panther Path, Fayetteville, GA 30215).  The wrestling room is located in the basement next to the gym.  Practices will start the week of November 2nd and end at the end of February.  In general, if the kids are not in school (week of Thanksgiving and during Christmas break), we will not have practice and/or hold voluntary practices.  Please see the calendar (found on this website) which will be updated throughout the season.  Please note: there is not enough room in the wrestling room for parents to sit and wait. Parents will have to wait in the hallway outside of the wrestling room.

​

6)  For kids who are unsure if they want to wrestle or not, we encourage trying out a practice or two with no obligation to join and no charge.  Please just let one of the coaches know that you are there to try it out.  

​​

7)  Wrestling Meets:  We may arrange some dual meets with other local (southside) youth wrestling programs.  Wrestling meets will generally be held during our regularly scheduled practice time, and details will be provided ahead of time on the website.

​​

8)  Tournaments:  We will host 3-5 tournaments - your dues will cover entry into each of the tournaments we host.  Details regarding which tournaments we will be attending will be provided via email and the dates will be shown on the calendar (found on this website).  Parents are responsible for all tournament transportation.  If a wrestler is unable to attend a tournament, please let the coaching staff know beforehand. 

​​

9) Travel Team: More expereinced wrestlers will be invited to join our travel team.  Practices will not change but we will travel to tournaments on many weekends we are not hosting our own events.  Information regarding the additional tournaments will be shared via email.  Families are responsible for the entry fees in these tournaments.  Additionally, travel team wrestlers will be required to have a USA Wrestling Card to enter tournaments.  These can be purchased at http://usawmembership.com/
