From Coach Terry Brands...
Located in beautiful Pagosa Springs, Colorado, Our team camp will be conducted to benefit wrestlers and coaches from a competitive standpoint as well as a technical one.  If there is an area you and your team needs to improve upon, we will work to solve those issues diligently. We will have a daily combination of technique and up to three duals per day.  A camp counselor will be assigned to each team to help with technical questions, motivation, encouragement, and instruction. This camp will teach basic mental and physical preparation for competition with daily seminars set to address nutrition, strength, endurance, conditioning, and mental toughness issues.

A special all-star team will be selected at the end of camp, consisting of the two wrestlers at each weight with the best records.  A team champion will also be recognized. We aim to bring elite level wrestling skills and knowledge to this camp and will maintain a high standard set to bring the best camp situation for your team.”

2007 Camp StatisticsApplication

The Wrestle the World Outdoor Camp offers a unique opportunity to enjoy wrestling and the outdoors together. Each team will be assigned a camping area and will be responsible for providing their own tents and bedding. Flashlight and/or lanterns are recommended. The camp will provide three meals a day served in the high school cafeteria.

Wrestling will take place in the high school gymnasium. Technique sessions will be held daily in addition to team dual competition. While the weather in June is usually dry and warm during the day, and cool to cold at night, in the event of bad weather the high school is available. 

“The trademark of Brands wrestling is hardnosed, fundamentally sound wrestling and mental toughness. The outdoor format adds immeasurably to the experience.  In the end it only serves to heighten the lessons Terry exemplifies and instills. It is a fantastic team-building experience." 
--Dan Janowsky

Though WTW Camp in Pagosa Springs is a Team Camp, individual wrestlers are welcome and will be assigned a team to compete on.  Technique and competition sessions are appropriate for all High School and Middle School age wrestlers.  However, there are typically fewer matches for middle school age wrestlers.  We always attempt to modify technique and competition sessions to meet the needs of the younger wrestlers.
