Little Kids / Beginners Wrestling Team
Beginner wrestling for boys and girls ages 5–8
MatTime’s Little Kids / Beginners Team gives young athletes a positive, structured introduction to wrestling. Practices develop balance, coordination, body awareness and confidence while teaching the positions and movements that create a strong foundation for the sport.
We keep practices focused, energetic and age-appropriate. Young wrestlers are challenged to listen, work hard and become comfortable doing difficult things—but the room should also be a place they enjoy returning to.
The objective is bigger than learning takedowns. We want children to develop discipline, resilience and good training habits while building a genuine love for wrestling.
