With 669 sequenced photos, this coaching guide will help your wrestlers actually see how various techniques are performed.
The wrestling techniques contained in this coach's handbook are organized into 18 steps. The steps are divided into beginning, intermediate, and advanced skill levels.
A. Beginning: Steps 1 through 8 illustrate basic techniques and fundamental positions requiring continuous movement without changing direction. They include
stance and movement in standing position, double leg takedown, inside leg stand-up, crossface, and bar arm, cradle, and switch.
B. Intermediate: Steps 9 through 14 should be mastered by advanced junior high wrestlers and by average or intermediate senior high competitors. The techniques in this section require more coordination and include
outside fireman's carry, single leg attack, wrist ride, duck out, and sit out and spin.
C. Advanced: The advanced techniques are illustrated in Steps 15 through 18 and should be learned by most high school wrestlers in order to compete well at the college level. Requiring a fairly high degree of coordination, these techniques include
inside fireman's carry, cross body ride, pinning from the takedown, and arm drags.
If you coach wrestling at the junior high, high school, or college level, you need _Successful Wrestling_--the book that helps you turn your grapplers into champions--one step at a time.
