And so "IT" begins,,,

Today's practice went extremely well considering that we had so many new faces in the room. I never took an official count but I would estimate that we had 40 to 50 youth in the room, 80% totally new to the sport. The Monday practice is designed for first and second year wrestlers who are relatively young (1st through 3rd grade) but we do have preschool through 6th graders.
Due to short attention spans we keep the practice short and sweet. We went over neutral position and proper stance (which included shuffle steps left and right), Drive steps (very important! Most takedowns require this step.), and we learned top and bottom starting position.
I encourage all parents to get involved in your childs wrestling. Take a few minutes at home to ask him what he learned at practice. Ask him to show you. Whether or not he does it right is not important, they need to know that you care. We will review all of these things throughout the year so one practice doesn't make or break a wrestler. Keep your comments positive when he shows you and encourage him to work hard.
Allow me to be the "bad guy" who stays on them saying what they need to hear (work harder, focus more,etc.) so that you can be his "good guy" parent who says what he wants to hear. (good job, I believe in you, etc.)
I am considering making short videos before each practice outlining what we work on that day to upload to this site that night. Parents would be able to watch with their sons and learn with him. I just wonder if it would be worth the effort? Please leave a comment if you have an opinion either way.
