"We are very excited about the Middle School Championships at this year's Grapple," says Suplay.com CEO Gary E. Frey. "For young wrestlers, what could be more thrilling than having the opportunity to share the mat with their collegiate heroes in one of the most famous sports arenas in the world? This is a scenario many of them have been dreaming of since their youth club days when they were still wearing wrestling singlets for kids."
Frey hopes the unique event will encourage participants to succeed athletically and academically. "An experience like this can serve as a powerful and inspiring force in a young person's life. It is my sincerest wish that these middle school students emerge from the event with a newfound motivation to work hard, get good grades, and continue wrestling at the college level."
The first entry fee for the Middle School Championships is $60, which includes two tickets to Grapple at the Garden. Entries to additional qualifiers are $20 each.
