We're excited to be kicking off our next season on November 9th, and we're continuing our efforts to grow wrestling participation throughout the Golden community. Over the past few years, we've made tremendous strides with our high school program, and we believe the best way to continue building a strong future for Golden Wrestling is by engaging student-athletes at the youth level.

Whether they are new to the sport or have previous wrestling experience, Hogback Elite is a great opportunity for young athletes to build confidence, discipline, and skills while being part of a positive team environment. Click here for flyer

Thank you for your continued support of youth athletics and the Golden community. We truly appreciate your partnership and look forward to welcoming new wrestlers to the mat this season.

Students are often managing a lot of school stress, friendships, family changes, anxiety, and the everyday ups and downs of growing up. The flyers below are about workshops that can help students manage their feelings, stress, friendships and changes. The workshops are designed to give students a supportive space to connect with peers while learning skills they can use at home, at school, and beyond. These workshops are designed to give students practical tools for navigating big feelings and challenging moments. During the workshops, a certified therapy dog, Nalu, will also be joining the group.
