THE AWARDS BANQUET WILL BE THURSDAY, JANUARY 28TH ALL WRESTLERS ARE INVITED AND WILL RECEIVE AWARDS. PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH A RESPONSE SO YOUR WRESTLER GETS HIS NAME ON HIS AWARD.
We will be providing drinks, pizza and chicken. There will be an email asking for side dishes depending on your last name.
We have a parent that has volunteered to put together a slideshow for the banquet. If you have any pictures of Panther wrestlers please email them to me to add to the show! The more the better. If you have numerous can you put them on CD or flashdrive and these will be returned to you. Please try to get them to me by our last practice on Thursday. Thanks!
Things to remember: Shower after every practice or event. No talking when coaches are explaining moves. At events look at your coaches between rounds for your choice of positions and last eat healthy. A well balanced diet can give you that little extra boost you need to score points.
Keep up the good work and remember YOU are what makes this program great!
