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

- Neutral 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

FACILITIES
All camps will be held on the Princeton University campus, one of the most beautiful and historic campuses in the world. 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.

**Camp dorms do not have air conditioning. We recommend you bring a fan with you to camp.**

CAMP STAFF
Each camp is run by the Princeton University Wrestling Coaches who are on-site and provide instruction throughout the duration of camp. They may be assisted by current/former Princeton athletes as well as other coaches from around the country.

All staff members are over the age of 18 and must successfully pass a background check in order to work camp.

REQUIRED FORMS
Each participant is required to submit a Parental Release & Health Form at check-in. Mailed or faxed copies will not be accepted. If you are attending multiple camps, you must submit a copy at each check-in. These forms must be filled out in their entirety, including a physician's signature on the Health Form. A Sports Physical may be substituted for the Health Form provided it is dated within 12 months of the camp start date and has a physician's signature. Without these forms you will not be allowed to participate in camp.

REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
All campers must provide their own equipment. Please make sure you have these items prior to your arrival as we do not have equipment to rent or borrow.
