Email Coach Geibel

Junior High Wrestlers,
Make sure to weigh-in and weigh-out everyday in the log book!!!

Make sure you have a ride ready to take you home at 5:30

Also Please make sure your practice gear is clean every day.  You are required  to cut down the risk of infections by showering daily with the soap in the locker room showers before you leave.  Never leave without showering.  Also, do not share towles, soap, shampoo, or workout gear.  Make sure you bring your dirty workout clothes home in your mesh bag and keep the dirty clothes and bag seperate from your clean clothes/bag.  We all need to do our part to prevent skin problems/diseases.

Don't leave practice without talking to Coach Geibel!  Ever!  Ever!  Ever!

For those of you who were growing your winter coats, please be advised that you need to get a haircut that allows you to meet the hair requirement.  Also facial hair needs to be shaved for matches.   

 


The Butler Golden Tornado Jr. High Team hosts a dual tournament each year. Email Coach Stoner if you are interested in next year's 2009-2010 tournament.
