Shakopee Wrestling Philosophy
The Shakopee Wrestling program focuses on the positive development of the student/wrestler physically, mentally and socially. In being part of a team committed to achieving group goals, the student/wrestler will increase cooperative and sportsmanlike social skills. While focusing on team goals, as well as personal goals, discipline and dedication to wrestling, the student/wrestler will develop traits that will help him/her be successful in life.

Weight Certification –Monday, Nov. 24th Wt. Certification is for anyone that is going to wrestle varsity or jr. varsity. Generally, all 9th -12th graders
and 7-8th graders that would be joining the high school team. About a week after the beginning of the season a weight certification process under the supervision of a physician is required. This is done
to assure that the health of the wrestler is not jeopardized by excessive weight reduction. The High School League will not allow wrestlers to wrestle with a body fat of less than 7%. The weight certification form will be sent home for the parents’ approval and
signature and returned to the wrestling coach the following day to be filed with the Minnesota State
High School League.ALL wrestlers must have this form signed before they
can compete.

Wrestle-off Procedure
Wrestle-offs are wrestling matches during practice that may determine who will represent SHS at a competition at
each weight class.
![Page 38: Shakopee Wrestling Parent Information Meeting 2014-15](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649d355503460f94a0c4b9/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Wrestle Offs
Any wrestler on the high school
team may wrestle-off for a position
on the Varsity or Jr. Varsity team.
![Page 39: Shakopee Wrestling Parent Information Meeting 2014-15](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649d355503460f94a0c4b9/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Wrestle off weigh-insPrior to practice start time
Any wrestler who wishes to wrestle-off for a position on the Varsity or Jr.
Varsity Squad must weigh within two pounds of the weight class being
wrestled-off for.
No exceptions! You must make weight.
![Page 40: Shakopee Wrestling Parent Information Meeting 2014-15](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649d355503460f94a0c4b9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Wrestle-off dates
Wrestle-off schedule will be determined by
the competition schedule of the team.
Most wrestle-offs will occur once a week-
the day before our first competition of that
week.
![Page 41: Shakopee Wrestling Parent Information Meeting 2014-15](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649d355503460f94a0c4b9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Established Wrestlers
Wrestlers may become “established” if they have an exceptional record
against good competition and wrestle offs have been very lopsided in their
favor. These wrestlers may be exempt from wrestle offs to save practice time
and avoid injury to other wrestlers.
![Page 42: Shakopee Wrestling Parent Information Meeting 2014-15](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649d355503460f94a0c4b9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Beating out a varsity wrestler
By February we usually have a pretty established varsity team.
Positions on the Section Individual Team will be determined by a three
match wrestle-off series. The challenger must win the first wrestle off to continue
on.
![Page 43: Shakopee Wrestling Parent Information Meeting 2014-15](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649d355503460f94a0c4b9/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
