ASA WRESTLING CLUB


ASA Wrestling Club encourages youth to try the challenging sport of wrestling. Many of our wrestlers are brand new to the sport, while others have won championships in the South. Working closely with Apex High School and other Wake County programs, we seek to teach the sport to any athlete willing to be challenged! If an athlete can make it on the mat, parents often notice improvements in other aspects of life--athletic, academic and social. The wrestling mat demands athleticism, discipline, and respect for self and opponent.

Accept the challenge! Join the Apex Sports Authority Wrestling Club and develop strength of body and strength of character.

Ready, wrestle!!

WHAT IS WRESTLING?

Wrestling is the greatest and most ancient of all sports, dating back to the 5th century BC. It is a contact sport in which one contestant competes with another using various holds and techniques in an attempt to force the shoulders of the opponent against a mat, thus scoring a fall and winning the match. If a wrestler cannot score a fall within the time limit, a winner is determined based on a point-scoring system.
