        Weatherford Wrestling Philosophies

1.        Fatigue is primarily mental and is often an indication of poor conditioning, motivation and mental weakness.  You should
         never lose because you have been outworked.  
2.        Intense drilling and repetitions are key to success in wrestling.
3.        Maintaining focus and intensity during practice will increase your technique and will increase your amount of success.
4.        Do not miss practice for small reasons. (i.e. feeling bad, doctors appointment)
5.        Bleeding will happen clean it up and move on with practice.
6.        Check with the coaches during every break in the match as we may have something to tell you.
7.        Always let a coach know you are about to wrestle so that we can coach you.
8.        Wrestlers will not display any type of emotion during a match.  Doing this could give your opponent a mental edge over you.
9.        Your actions in the classroom and in the public reflect everyone on the team, coaches, community and most importantly
yourself.
        Wrestlers will always be respectful and courteous to everyone they in which they interact with.
10.      There will be no complaining about coaches, practices, teammates, or workouts.  Complaints will lead to more work and longer
        practices.


These are a few of the philosophies of the Weatherford Wrestling Team.  All wrestlers will abide by the philosophies and will commit to
creating a winning atmosphere in the mat room and while at matches.  

Wrestling is a tough sport and requires a lot of hard work and dedication to have a great amount of success.  Some wrestlers can have
a success with very little work, but state champion caliber wrestlers have a great amount of dedication and hard work.  We as coaches
will teach you what you need to know, condition you, and help you out as much as we can.  We can not teach hard work and
discipline to you.  You will need to put in extra time outside of the mat room to achieve the greatest amount of success.  This includes
discipline while at home by putting “junk” into your body.
