Wrestling Program - Girls Wrestling Clinic
This program will cover the basics of wrestling, and each practice will be formatted the same. We will start with a dynamic warm-up to ensure the athletes are prepared. We will then do technique work, learning the basics, takedowns, defense, and groundwork. We will then pick up the intensity briefly to apply what we have learned in that session to a match setting (with skill, ability, and safety as our priority). To finish, we will do conditioning through activities and games. I want to ensure each wrestler has some growth, no matter how small. By blending our focus on technique, applying it to real scenarios, and having fun, we can create the next generation of wrestlers and champions!My Name is Jacob Bastarache, and I am a passionate youth wrestling coach with several years of experience working with athletes of all skill levels and ages. As a former High School wrestler, I bring an understanding of the sport and a commitment to helping athletes reach their full potential. Additionally, I have five years of coaching experience in football and three years of coaching wrestling as an assistant at the youth and high school levels. Most notably, I was an assistant wrestling coach on the country's first Special Olympic Wrestling Team in Milford, MA.My wrestling achievements include:
Over 100 career wins
Natick Wrestling Captain
2016 Sectional Champion
2x All-State Qualifier
2x State Place winner
2016 State Runner-up
2x MetroWest Allstar
2x Baystate Allstar
Top 5 at Lowell Holiday Tournament 2015 (85 teams)
3-year varsity letter winner
My coaching philosophy is deeply rooted in creating a supportive and positive environment. I believe in developing well-rounded athletes through technical skills, physical conditioning, and sportsmanship. I want to ensure that every wrestler can learn and grow in this environment, designed to instill confidence in the athletes, allowing them to perform at their best while still having fun!
