Why Wrestle?

 

Wrestling prepares a person to fight the game of life. 

The wrestler is the one athlete that must meet their opponent and do battle completely on their own; no one can substitute; no time outs are possible.  You have no one to check, screen, block, or assist you in any way; there is no one to blame for your mistakes.  When you win, you must show quiet pride and modesty; when you lose, the responsibility is yours. 

 Wrestling is a special sport. 

In other sports, when contact is made they blow a whistle to stop the action; in wrestling when contact is made, we're just getting started.  No sport requires more sacrifice then wrestling.  The individual, through self-denial, offers more of his character than can ever be explained here.  It is something you carry with you throughout life, and through every trial, test, and tribulation.
