If your child has a condition that requires special care, please be sure to advise coaches of this condition. If your child is asthmatic or has severe allergies, please provide a "spare" inhaler or epipen that are clearly labeled with the child's name that can be kept with the medical aid kit throughout the season. These items will be returned at the end of the season.
If your child is a diabetic, please provide a "care package" of juice and/or preferred snack that is clearly labeled that can be kept with the medical aid kit in the event of an emergency. This will be returned at the end of the season as well.
Parents are required to be present at all practices in case of emergencies. Practice is not a daycare or a drop-off point.
At practice, the only gear that is needed are clean shoes (wrestling shoes preferred) that you bring in to change into, shorts/sweat pants and a T-shirt.
Do not wear shoes from outside on the mats. This will help protect expensive mats and reduce the risk of RINGWORM and other BACTERIA - a wrestler's worse nightmare.
Clothing should not be baggy. Fingers can become entangled and broken. T-shirts are to be snug or tucked in at all times.
Belts, necklaces, watches and rings of ANY kind are prohibited. These items will be checked on a regular basis.
Deodorant is recommended and encouraged if you feel your wrestler needs it. Fingernails are to be kept trim and neat. You will not wrestle with long fingernails.
Singlets will be provided for events. The school gym uniform will be used for our warm-ups, which most of our wrestlers already have. We would like to purchase team T-shirts for wrestlers and parents. The price will be determined.
We will be using Brandywine's wrestling room. Our goal is to take care of this room as if it were our own.
Thank You!
