Angry Fish Wrestling Club

The following may be considered a master tournament schedule for the spring; it contains every tournament which we would that be likely to attend as a group. It is unlikely that we would (or could) attend all of these as a group.

The Angry Fish will, if all goes according to plan, be taking a trip this weekend to the tournament in Elyria, Ohio. If you’re interested in going, please read this carefully.

The general itinerary is as follows:

1. Leave from the Cranberry Quaker Steak & Lube at 7pm, Friday April 27th.
2. Stay over in a “wrestling barn” in Ohio.
3. Compete in the Greco/freestyle tournament in Elyria on Saturday.
4. Back to the barn.
5. Do (hopefully interesting) stuff on Sunday.
6. Return to Cranberry Quaker Steak & Lube at 7pm, Sunday April 29th.

The cost of the trip will be $80.

Athletes will need to bring the following:

• One bag, which everything else will fit in. If you want a smaller bag just for your wrestling gear, put it in the big bag. It would be wise to have a nametag on your bag (and your name on everything else).
• Wrestling gear. In a freestyle/Greco tournament, this means:
  • Your USA Wrestling card
  • Wrestling Shoes
  • A singlet. You’re supposed to have a red and a blue singlet, or a red/blue reversible singlet. At smaller tournaments, you can get away with a non-standard singlet, though.
  • A handkerchief. This goes in your singlet, in case you have to clean up a bloody nose, or such.
  • Headgear, if you’re into that sort of thing.
• Enough street clothes for the weekend.
• Swimming gear (swimsuit, towel, flip-flops, etc.)
• Food money. Optionally, some money for entertainment (e.g. video games).

Wrestling gear (including cards) will be available at the tournament, if the athlete brings enough money. If you don’t yet have a USA card… you’re a very naughty wrestler. Go get one now!

If you’re going, you need to do a few things:

1. Email Coach Brinzer before 11am on Thursday and let him know you’re definitely going.
2. Bring your $80, check or cash, to practice on Thursday. If you can’t be at the Thursday practice, bring it on the trip on Friday.
3. Be at the Quaker Steak at 6:45pm on Friday. If you show up at 7:05, we may still be there, but don’t be surprised if we’re not.

We need to call in and pay for certain accommodations on Thursday. If we don’t have confirmation by then, you’re not going. If you commit, and then after 11am on Thursday you decide you can’t go, we’re going to charge you $40 anyway.

There is likely to be a car going back earlier on Sunday, as at least two people have a schedule conflict on Sunday evening. If you need to go back early, let us know. Space in this early car will be given to those who ask for it first.

Finally, this trip is contingent upon having enough athletes commit. Our goal is 15. If we fall far short of that number, the trip may be cancelled.

The PAWF has posted their spring tournament schedule. It should be noted that there are sometimes changes and additions, as the season progresses. In particular, it’s possible that tournaments may be added… we hope so, particularly in the west. If anyone in our neighborhood wants to hold a tournament, get on it!
