Looking for place to help coach wrestling in Cherry Hill/Moorestown/Marlton... (Paulsboro: middle school)

[kadam]

I will be moving to Marlton and working in Moorestown at the end of May and was wondering if anyone knew of any wrestling clubs in the area (I mean real wrestling not the garbage on TV). I wrestled in high school and did some coaching in college and would like to keep active in the sport. Also if anyone has any information about any high school wrestling teams in the area it would be appreciated.

I would say go right to the high schools, contact the head of PE for each; I can't think of any clubs, really, just hs wrestling and (of course) college.

One of the best high school programs in the state is Paulsboro down in Gloucester County. If you're looking for college wrestling in the area Rider in Lawrenceville, NJ is the best in the state and has a top 30 program nationally.

Kadam, I know what you mean -- I'm from Iowa originally so obviously have some ties to the sport

Here's a great club my son belonged to in Mount Laurel;

Wrecking Crew Wrestling

One of my buddies volunteer coached there and the middle school (Harrington)nearby -- and they were very grateful to have him.

Harrington News

Knock off the harrington part on that site and it takes you to the Lenape HS program which is also very active, though I don't remember seeing any "volunteer" coaches, I'm sure they'd welcome some help -- pretty big team.

Good luck in your search. Don't think it'll be too hard to find a place.
