You will have some athletic talent in juniors and seniors, but they are not your future. Concentrate on sophmores and FRESHMEN.
Look strongly at your middle school feeder programs. There is your pipeline to success. Find someone in your community to work with them, develop programs there.
Lots of middle schools in the greater Nashville area wrestle in season would put you on there schedule. Chattanooga wrestles primarily after the high school season in middle school.
Spring/summer wrestling (clubs) is a short season, but a good place to build in the community.
Ask PA Bowler (booking secretary for our wrestling officials association) to send an official down to call some intrasquad matches, talk to wrestlers and parents about wrestling.
The support for you will be unlimited from your coaching peers , until you begin to whip their behinds!
Best of luck
