Wrestling activities will take place on Princeton's numerous wrestling mats and exercise facilities. Campers will reside in Princeton University dormitories and dine in one of the school's dining halls. All dormitories will have adult supervision. Roommate requests are honored whenever possible, but are not guaranteed.

TECHNIQUE/COMPETITION CAMP

The Princeton Wrestling Camp offers a unique design that allows wrestlers to learn high percentage techniques from some of the best college coaches in the country and apply those techniques in “college style” live wrestling situations.  The basic design of the camp sessions will consist of two technique sessions in the morning and afternoon, and a live/competition session at night. 

Unlike so many other camps that lack organization in what is taught at the camp, we will use a systematic approach to ensure that the high percentage technique that wins the big matches is covered. 

The following will be taught at camp:
- Neutral Offense
- Set-ups for single legs, hi-crotches and doubles
- Finishing single legs, hi-crotches and doubles in all positions 
  (on the mat and feet)
- Handfighting
- High percentage throws

- Nuetral Counter Offense
- Front head lock and double overhooks
- Single, hi-crotch, and double counter-offense
- Re-shots

- Bottom
- Clearing Crabs and Legs
- Scoring when opponent: chops, spirals, or grabs ankle
- Explosive starts

- Top
- Tilts
- Legs and Crab Ride
- Bars
- Cradles
- The Turk
