Join us for our 2nd Annual Shrimp Feast
Fundraiser!
The cost of your registration this year
includes 2 tickets to our shrimp feast fundraiser. To register for your
tickets, please visit
www.2ndluyaashrimpfeast.eventbrite.com
and follow the instructions to purchase tickets. Each family member has
been assigned a discount code of their last name (Example: Logan Way,
Discount Code: Way) that will allow you to purchase 2 tickets for free.
If you are planning on attending the shrimp feast, you will need to
follow these instructions in order to receive your tickets. By doing so,
you are also providing us an accurate head count for food/drinks. If you
wish to purchase more than 2 tickets, please do so, however, the
discount code is only valid for 2 tickets per family.
All proceeds solely benefit our wrestling program and will help us
purchase new mats this year!
New this year, all tickets will only be sold online.

Thank you for
expressing interest in joining the LUYAA Wrestling family. Prior to
signing on the dotted line, we would like to inform you of what you are
committing your child and yourself to.
We are a
small organization with approximately 80 wrestlers; therefore, everyone
must contribute to ensure a successful and fun filled season for our
children. There will be a volunteer/singlet deposit in the form of a $75
undated check to be returned if the family volunteers for the minimum
amount of time required per family and the singlet is returned at the
end of the season. The amount of volunteer time required is dependent
on the total number of wrestlers. Volunteer time may include moving and
setting up mats, concession help, and table help at home matches or
tournaments, and there are various other activities requiring
volunteers. All families will be required to participate in the
volunteer program and return their singlet or donate their $75 deposit.
Wrestling requires a lot of volunteer help in order to make each event
and the season successful. The parents did a GREAT job in 2009 and I
expect no less this year. There will be a volunteer schedule made out
before the season starts, and we try and accommodate everyone’s request.
In
addition to the normal LUYAA registration fee you will be required to
purchase wrestling shoes ($30+) and headgear ($20+) from a sporting
goods store of your choice. We have a lot of used shoes and headgear in
the shoe bank you are welcome to.
We will
be holding a parent only meeting in early November to welcome
you, introduce you to the coaching staff, explain the volunteer program,
share our wrestling philosophy and provide any other information that
you may require. Our regular season matches are scheduled on Saturday’s
but may change to some Sunday’s because of unforeseen events (i.e.
weather, scheduling conflicts with the High Schools etc.) On days of a
match be prepared to spend up to 6 hours with your child and the
wrestling family. Home matches require setting up and taking down of
mats and equipment, table help, concession help, and clean up, and away
matches require travel time (up to an hour each way) plus the 3 to 4
hours of wrestling time. All wrestlers will wrestle.
Our
wrestling practices will start the week of November 16th. We
will practice 2 or 3 times per week, between Monday and Thursday
evenings, 2 hours per night. Some of the youngest wrestlers will only
practice 2 times per week typically at Oakdale High School, Urbana High
School, or Gold’s Gym wrestling rooms. I will hand out a practice
schedule when I know the dates we can get in the High Schools.
Depending on the size of the team, it will be necessary to split into
three or four squads. This will allow for more individualized attention
as well as for the safety of the wrestlers (the wrestling rooms are
relatively small).
What I
had hoped to accomplish with this letter is to make sure everyone is
informed of what to expect from our program and what our program expects
from you. Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions
(Cell: 703-898-2346).
Thank
You,
Doug Makosy
Wrestling Commissioner
