You would need to find a club team to join. They usually start in March. Check themat.com or tennwrestling.com for a list of teams.

 

17 is a bit late to start. Wrestling is a learned sport. No one starts out being good and rarely even average. Not trying to discourage you but it is doubtful that you would win any matches for quite some time.

this young man should pursue local high schools in his area and inquire to TSSAA rules as to how home school students are eligible...I believe they are ..to participate..He should not be discouraged as to the amount of matches to be won or loss....I thought it was all about the endeavor ..the participation in our beloved sport ....any young person adult who dedicates himself will reap the benefits of such a demanding sport REGARDLESS of the outcome.......maybe this notion will increase the interest in the sport...cause we need more fellas 'round here

peace

happy holidays

I'm not sure, but have heard that some of the Greenback kids are home-schooled.

Not true. Some of the kids WERE home schooled prior to enrolling at Gback. As far as I know home schooled kids are NOT eligible under T$$AA rules.

In FL HS Sports they have the Tebow rule for home school children that want to play sports.

Nick Reveiz started his Sophmore year by loosing matches but by end of the season he placed 2nd in the region. Ended up being a 2X State Champ.

 

It's never to late if your have the heart and desire to win. You will have a learning curve but it could happen.

I'm not trying to discorage just trying to prepare him. Its the same thing I tell any kid or older person that is thinking about getting into wrestling. Everyone starts out humble and you should be prepared for that. Wrestling isn't a sport that a guy off the street has instant success at.

im not a beginer ive wrestled since 6th grade i just cant find a team because the homeschooled thing

Comprehension is the key here. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

 

 

He CLEARLY stated that he has been wrestling since 6th grade. And he is NOT inexeperienced. Wow. /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" />
