Athlos Sports Clubs
Growing lifelong athletes with characteristics of champions for life – in the Mind, Body & Spirit.
ATHLOS WRESTLING CLUB
We are pumped to invite everyone to our club this year! Last year was a great success & we are looking to continue growing opportunities for our youth.
Vision
Athlos wrestling forges lifelong athletes with the character traits of a champion on and off the mat. We foster a spirit tempered with resilience, confidence, humility, creativity, and coachability. We teach them to refine the lifelong skill of learning and self-development, because winning in life is of utmost importance. However, we define winning as maintaining the character traits of a champion to victory in life, despite temporary victory or defeat. Winning is not a temporary hand raise, even after a championship match. Winning is the way in which we proceed, lead, and succeed despite temporary outcomes. Wrestling provides us the fires in which we effectively forge, refine, and temper these traits into the next generation of young men to be effective leaders in tomorrow’s society. These traits will be burned into their minds, their bodies, and their spirits. This is our vision. This is our greatest legacy.

Financial Investment
Coaches and volunteers for Athlos wrestling are making a commitment to help your young wrestlers grow as individuals. This is about more than just wrestling, and we are committed to giving you and your wrestlers the best we have to offer. This is not a babysitting service, and we expect the best you and your wrestlers have to offer in return. By making a financial investment, you will be more committed to the process and to the season.
What is the investment?- Monthly: $90 per wrestler
- If you have more than one wrestler in your family, for which you are financially responsible, it will be $75 per additional wrestler
- There is no change in the monthly price for “shorter” months with Holidays
- If you pay in full at the time of sign-up, you get $25 off your first wrestler ($5 off for each of the 5 months)
- Each wrestler is required to have a team singlet for the folkstyle season
- For the freestyle season, each wrestler will need two singlets
- Tournaments and travel – Parents are responsible for all tournament fees and traveling expenses

Sponsorship Opportunities

If the investment above is more than your budget allows, and you remain committed to the process, we will find sponsorship opportunities that you can apply for so your wrestler can still be part of the team. We do not want financial hardships interfering with your wrestler’s ability to participate and grow as an individual. Just email Justin at foreverathlos@gmail.com for more info.
