WRESTLING COACHES!


Are you committed to improving the performance of your wrestling team,  yet experience "frustration" when pursuing new ideas and the best techniques for your program?  

Do you find yourself thinking that MOST coaches clinics... 

  • are too far away

  • are too expensive

  • are too time consuming (you're not interested in spending 2-3 days away from home 
    if you don't have to)

  • are not that cost effective (you spend a lot of time (and money) for only 3-4 "things" 
    at most that would benefit you and your team

  • seem to be more "college" oriented and don't really address my needs 
    (my wrestlers will never do most of the stuff that is taught at clinics)

  • tend to get boring after the first session or two

How can I LEARN THE MOST and do the BEST POSSIBLE JOB PREPARING MY WRESTLING TEAM not ONLY for this season but for the seasons after this?  And how can I do this for the least amount of time AND the least amount of money?

If you would like the answers to this question, then this truly unique
clinic concept is probably exactly what you're looking for!


Dave Crowell, the head wrestling coach at Wilson Area High School in
Easton, PA for the past eleven years has developed a truly revolutionary new coaches clinic format.

He is presently scheduling and conducting clinics, conferences and
consultations which are designed to be conducted for you, your staff, your youth coaches, or any group of coaches (unlimited number) OR your team. AT THE TIME AND LOCATION THAT IS MOST CONVENIENT FOR YOU!

*But the BEST part is that each clinic is CUSTOM DESIGNED to suit YOUR needs for your kids and for your team!

WHAT KIND OF INSTRUCTION IS AVAILABLE TO YOU?

"The techniques that I teach are not fancy 'clinic moves' that only the most
gifted wrestlers might be able to execute.  Instead, they are the
'battle-proven' techniques that I teach my wrestlers along with 'the little
things' that make them work for everyone on your team!"


"These techniques 'taught right' should make a real difference from your
least to the most talented wrestler!  If you choose, I will also demonstrate
the drills and explain the best ways to teach the techniques so that your
wrestlers can actually DO THEM in competition!"


But technique is only one aspect of what enables wrestlers and teams to
succeed.  Other  topics of instruction can include:

  • An in-season strength training program that has produced truly amazing
    results (documentation available).

  • Drills and situations.

  • Practice structure and organization.

  • Ways to give your program exposure and promotion.

  • Periodization and peaking for the end of the season.

  • What to address at your preseason coaching staff meeting.

  • How to create a program that is respected by all including 
    developing team rules, a parents meeting, etc.

  • How to evaluate your athletes AND motivate them at the same time

Coaches comment:

"I met Dave Crowell in 1995 at a coaches clinic.  Since that time I have had
the opportunity to watch his teams perform and watch Dave coach.  I have also
had the good fortune of having Dave work our summer wrestling camps. Dave Crowell is an outstanding teacher, motivator and coach.  He has a unique ability to
connect with his students.  True genius is being able to take something complicated
and make is simple.  Dave does this very well.  He is also a student of the
sport and is an outstanding person. I learn from Dave every time I see him teach.
He has my highest recommendation."

"Dave Crowell is the best high school wrestling coach in Pennsylvania. I have
spent many summers working wrestling clinics with him and realize that the
achievements and honors he has received are very deserving. Dave's
professionalism and personal integrity are excellent.  His wrestling
knowledge and teaching ability are masterful.  His creative insight into
wrestling situations and the nature of teenagers make him  a precious
resource to anyone who is motivated to become a better
wrestling coach.  Dave Crowell has my highest respect and I give him my
ultimate recommendation!"

"I've been fortunate to have the opportunity to observe Dave Crowell as an
opposing coach as well as a fellow clinician. I have always been impressed
with his technical expertise as well as his unique perspective on all
aspects of wrestling. Dave has a tremendous ability to dissect the most
important areas of the sport and present them in a manner that is easy to
learn. His insight and expertise regarding developing a proven system for
successful wrestling would be an invaluable asset to any coaching staff or
team."
