Results Reporting

A tradition we have in our Andover Youth Wrestling program is the handing out of pins by the coaches at practices following tournaments. In order to keep track of this information and make sure each youth wrestler gets his/her pins we have created an online tournament SURVEY form  for parents to fill-out. Even if your wrestler doesn’t pin anyone at a tournament please let us know via this survey how they did, as the coaches like to keep track of these stats and hear about experiences, as well as see their growth throughout the season. We hope each wrestler will get their pins within a week of the tournament, but please be patient as we are trying something new and it may take a week or two to get our routine down.

We look forward to a great season!
