Lassiter Wrestling

Updated 10/16/20

Hey all, final plea before we go into the weekend to get those registrations done and physical information uploaded into Parent Vue.  Starting Monday, I’m updating the email list to only include those that have completed the registration through SportsEngine.  Physicals also need to be done through Parent Vue, I can’t collect any hard copies. 

Any athlete that doesn’t have a 2020-21 physical on file and approved by the school can’t come on campus for sports.  That includes open weight room on Monday/Wednesday.  If you are having issues, please see the 2 attachments on here.  If that doesn’t help, call me or email me and I’ll walk you through it. 

1-Registration Link:  https://lassiterwrestling.sportngin.com/register/form/666955307  PLEASE REGISTER ASAP

2-Physicals: All athletes must have updated physicals on file.  If you played a fall sport, you’re ok. 

Required Equipment: Wrestling shoes, headgear (mandatory at every practice), mouthpiece covering top/bottom of braces (suggested for all though).  A player pack consisting of 1 tshirt/1 short will be provided with registration.  Extra player packs available for purchase for $20.  Sweats and hoods are not permitted, but compression shirts/pants can be worn under player uniform. TSLA on Amazon makes excellent/inexpensive compression gear:   https://www.amazon.com/stores/TSLA/page/17388834-C238-4B82-8A25-0BF6A664FA2D?ref_=ast_bln

*** Until further notice, I won’t be doing daily team laundry***

Competition Gear: Each wrestler will be given a warmup top/warmup bottom that they will keep and be responsible for and then return at the conclusion of their season. Singlets will be given out on match day and collected at the end of that day.

Hydration: Each wrestler will need their own water bottle for practices and meets.  No team coolers will be taken on trips until further notice.

Weight Certification: The GHSA has just sent out info.  I will schedule the test as soon as I can and get info out.

Transportation: More info will come, but as of right now, we will be taking buses to all of our away events.  A maximum of 24 people including managers and coaches can be on a bus.

Fundraising: This is something I really hate discussing, but with the state of things due to Covid, we could use help.  I have put together a really modest budget for the year.  Every wrestling need will be taken care of for the athletes.  Anything above and beyond though, is still pending.  We usually run the Trojan Invitational opening weekend, 22 schools were coming this year!  With the season pushed back 2 weeks, we lost that tournament and with it, about $8,000-9,000.  I believe we did secure a Team GA kid’s tournament, but those aren’t always 100% reliable.  We have discussed ways to continue the very successful Texas Hold Em’ tournament this year, but again, with Covid, we’re aren’t 100% that it will happen.  Now, more than ever, team dues, OurFund, sponsorship, donations, and support are at a prime.  I welcome any ideas!
