Appy Elite for King of the Hill Duals 2017

[drmedulla]

Coaches, Wrestlers, and Parents:

 

It's that time of year again...the off-season! As we all sit down and begin to plan, organize, and schedule our off-season practices, workouts, and competitions, please make any of your athletes that may be interested aware that we (Bradley Wrestling/Bradley Pride Wrestling Club in conjunction w/ Science Hill and Heritage wrestling) will once again be putting the Appy Elite GOLD and RED teams together to compete in the inaugural 2017 King of the Hill Duals (Johnson City, TN) on March 17-19. 

 

The Appy Elite GOLD team is typically composed of state champions and state medalists from any division w/in TN and GA. We try to cap the roster off between 16-20 kids maximize mat time. Appy Elite RED team is usually composed of state medalists, state qualifiers, and up-and-coming freshmen or varsity starters looking for high quality off-season competition. Again, this team is open to anyone interested and is capped at 16-20 wrestlers as well. Two years ago, our numbers were so good that we actually put together a third Appy Team, Appy Elite BLACK that was primarily composed of returning starters, up-and-coming freshman, and potential starters for their respective teams. Lastly, our numbers for 2016 were at an all time high and we composed a fourth Appy Team, Appy Elite GRAY, which had a similar composition to Appy Elite Black. This will be our fifth year competing under the Appy Elite banner and we have been extremely competitive every year finishing as Tournament AND Pool B champions at last years Dixie Duals. Past years teams have included wrestlers from the following schools: Bradley, Heritage (TN), Science Hill, Cleveland, Bearden, Greeneville, Alcoa, Wilson Central, Beech, East Hamilton, Hixson, Siegel, and William Blount. 

 

If interested, please email me at bmsmith@bradleyschools.org w/ your name, weight class (weigh-ins at KOTH are +5), and state finish or placing. I've already been contacted at the State Tournament by several former Appy Elite Wrestlers, so I'm anticipating this filling up quick. As soon as the roster is complete, I'll release it. Details and cost will be narrowed down and released shortly. We try to keep this as cost effective as possible, but you MUST have a USAW card to compete. 

 

Thanks in advance,

History shows that's it's those that compete off season, and attend additional summer camps, and gain extra skills & coaching like this event offers that usually ends up somewhere on the podium the very next season or two.
