Welcome to the Titan Wrestling Club website!
The Titan Wrestling Club is a non-profit corporation organized in the State of Michigan. We are a member of the Michigan Youth Wrestling Association (MYWA), a charter member of Michigan USA Wrestling and the national governing body for Olympic wrestling, USA Wrestling. The Titan Wrestling Club is open to boys and girls in grades K-12 regardless of school affiliation. We do not get involved in school teaching programs or school politics - our only goal is to encourage youth wrestling in the Jackson, Michigan area. All of our wrestlers are treated equally and fairly as we work with them to achieve their individual goals. We promote the three main styles of wrestling practiced in the United States - folkstyle, freestyle and Greco-Roman - and encourage anyone who is interested to join our club and give it a try. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us by using the information on the left or emailing to contact@titanwrestlingclub.org. Thanks for visiting our site. There are no losers in wrestling, just winners and learners.

A few words to live by in these trying times...
The Paradoxical Commandments by Dr. Kent M. Keith
1. People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Love them anyway. 2. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. 3. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. 4. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. 5. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway. 6. The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. Think big anyway. 7. People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs. Fight for a few underdogs anyway. 8. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. 9. People really need help but may attack you if you do help them. Help people anyway. 10. Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.

Winter Weather Policy Reminder
While wrestling practice is important, it is not important enough to take unnecessary risks while driving. In general, if the Jackson Area Catholic Schools have canceled school for the day then our practice that day is also canceled. In the unusual circumstance that the weather clears up around mid-day and the roads are in good shape by mid-afternoon we will post an announcement on the website that lets you know that we will still be having practice. If no such announcement is posted, then practice is canceled. We will also make an attempt to post practice cancellations, but this may not be possible depending on the weather. Tuesday, November 11
Assistant Coaches Needed! Service Hours available for students!
Our practices run much more smoothly when we have assistant coaches out on the mat to help the kids. No experience is necessary - all you need to do is be able to listen to whatever the coach is teaching and then help the kids make it happen. Of course, anyone with any wrestling experience should automatically be out on the mat! This is also a great way for JCMS and Lumen Christi students to earn service hours. If anyone is interested in helping out they can either contact Coach Cliff or just jump in at practice. Friday, September 28
Call for photos!!!
We are always looking for photos to add to the site. If you have any photos from past seasons or if you take some this season that you would like to share please contact Coach Cliff and we will get them added to the site. We would like to get a photo archive established for the club and - who knows - maybe your photo will end up on the front page. Friday, March 6
Why Wrestle Freestyle?
This is a common question that we hear every season. We have given our reasons over and over again - you really focus on getting better at takedowns and pins, it's fast paced and most importantly, most young wrestlers find it to be more fun. The National Freestyle Coach, Zeke Jones, has written an article recently for USA Wrestling and he gives some excellent reasons as well. Please take the time to read this article, especially if you are a Middle School or High School wrestler who has never given freestyle a try. Handout: Why Wrestle Freestyle? |
