VYI Wrestling is for boys and girls in elementary and middle school of all ability levels. The Winter wrestling season runs November through February with practices typically M/W 7-8pm for K-3rd graders and 7-8:30pm for 4-8th graders. An online parent's meeting will be held the week before the first practice. The first practice will be Monday November 9th at Madison HS. Financial aid is available.
We are walking in the Vienna Halloween Parade this year. All current and former wrestlers, coaches, and families are welcome. Please RSVP so we can get an idea of the number of walkers.
The theme of our group is Zombie Abraham Lincoln. Honest Abe was our 16th President and a formidable wrestler. He was inducted into the Natoinal Wrestling Hall of Fame!
A free “Intro to Wrestling” clinic will be held Thursday, November 5th 6:30pm at Madison HS. The clinic is a great opportunity for kids and families to learn about the sport, whether you are registered for the Winter season or just considering. Kids participate in a basic practice where they learn fundamentals and play fun games. Invite friends and other families to try wrestling!

Our goal is to teach and encourage a love for the sport of wrestling - the oldest sport in the world. Wrestling teaches a mental and physical discipline unlike any other sport and establishes character traits and skills that are applicable to all aspects of life and which extend well beyond the years spent on the wrestling mat.
