2011-2012 Metro Mondays

 

Starting Monday December 5, 2011 the Hi Flyers continue to host Mn/USA Metro Monday Folkstyle training sites at two locations this year, Minnetonka High School and the OLD Saint Michael-Albertville High School.  The HiFlyer wrestling club originated Metro Mondays and we are pleased that other clubs have adopted Monday training during the High School season.  Metro Mondays are a great way to train in Folkstyle technique and get some top-notch workouts with wrestlers from many different communities.  World silver medalist and Golden Gopher Division I coach Brandon Eggum will be leading a team coaching at Minnetonka High School. 

 

Coach Chad Erickson, a long time HiFlyer Wrestler, University of Minnesota Gopher all American, and Apple Valley graduate will be coaching at St. Michael on Mondays this year.  Chad will be helped by Tim Mlsna.  Our Metro Monday program is intended for 8th grade and under as long as you are not on varsity.  The practices are designed for kids that have a reasonable understanding of the basics and want to build from there.  Each practice will be approximately 2/3 technique and drilling and 1/3 live wrestling.

 

The cost for Minnetonka Metro Monday HiFlyer Training is $50 (STMA $150/10 sessions to be consistent with Chad’s other training program Flyer here:  http://c2971522.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/FQNjvjL1XgtTAxu3yaGX.pdf) and you will need a USA Wrestling card.  If you do not have your card for this year we will have card sign up available at the first practice at a cost of $31 ($36 online from www.mnusawrestling.org).  Having a USA Wrestling card is mandatory to cover our insurance requirements for the facilities.
