Middle School

Registration is Now Open!

Why Wrestle?:

  • Wrestling teaches life skills that can be used for the rest of your life: work ethic, perseverance, dedication, discipline to name a few.
  • Wrestling has crossover skills with almost all sports. In other words, it can make you a better athlete at a sport you already participate in. 

But I have never wrestled before?:

  • You are not alone. Almost half of the wrestlers in our middle school and high school programs were new to wrestling last year. We will teach you the skills you need.

When and where are practices?:

  • Wrestling starts in November at Dodge Middle School from 4:00 - 5:30 pm
  • Practices are Monday - Friday, except on the days when there is no school
  • There is a shuttle bus from BMS to Dodge that leaves from the north end of the building.

What do I need for wrestling practice?:

  • Shorts, t-shirts and wrestling shoes.

How do I sign up for wrestling?:

  • Sign ups will be via SportsEngine
  • Don’t let the fee be the reason you don’t come out. There are opportunities for financial aid!
