Congrats on the mat set-up Willie…no thanks to me of course. Glad to see you have put this together. I hope local Bethpage wrestlers as well as those from neighboring Nassau and Suffolk towns take advantage of this new set-up.
best, Pete
Thanks Pete; it was a long time coming but thanks in a big part to my brother Frank ,we got this done. As you know I welcome all wrestlers and athletes to my gym and I am looking forward to getting many more in the future. We have already started working with some wrestlers so if you or anyone else would like to come down and check it out, please feel welcome!
Coach, can you give more details of your new program? Thank you FSW
Sure Folksyle; What we added as of right now is wrestling every Wed. night. We train M.,W.,F at 5 to @ 7 pm. and Sun. mornings at 9 am. For members who are currently lifting and want to get extra wrestling practice in, we do an hour of technique and drilling on wed. after lifting. They are also able to drill on their own whenever they wish. We will look to add more wrestling practices in the future. Also we will add for none members who want to just work on wrestling a $20 fee for 1 hour. Hope this helps, any other questions please don’t hesitate to ask.
