Team Competition - Our Team Competitions are unlike any other camp you have ever
attended. They will test your wrestling skills, mental and physical toughness and
ability to work together with other team members to accomplish a common goal .
Campers may come as individuals or with a school team.Upon arrival to camp you will
be assigned to a team for purposes of team competitions. Teams will be assigned to
evenly distribute weights and numbers on teams. Teams will be involved in team building
activities and competitions over the period of the camp. Wrestlers will learn how
to work with others to problem solve and accomplish common goals. Points will be
earned from competitions held over the period of the camp to award an Iron Man Championship
Team.
Team competitions and points will be awarded for the following competitions 1) Accumulated
pull-up competition (pull-ups conducted to enter the dining hall over the period
of the week, 2) Obstacle course competition. Our obstacle course is designed to
integrate problem solving skills as well as physical challenges. The course will
be run 3 times over the period of the camp. First running will be run as team after
walk-through and rule orientation, but no practice session. Second running will be
run individually; Individual times will be added together for team placing. Third
will be running as a team relay with the intent of teams working over the week to
develop team building and problem solving skills to improve team times. Placing in
all 3 events will be added together to determine team, placing in the obstacle course
competition. 3) Canoe race,, 4) Tug of War-, 5) River NERF Football, 6) Paintball
tournament, 7) Standard format wrestling tournament, 8) Takedown tournament , 9)
Overtime format tournament. Team points earned over the week in these events will
be combined to determine the “Iron Man Championship Team”. All of our competitions
are round robin. You will be competing against every other team at camp rather
than a bracketed double elimination tournament so you will get plenty of competition!
