We signed Colton up for wrestling this fall and he seemed to really like it (until it came to tournament time)! He had pratice twice a week for an hour which seemed like a little much for a kindergartner but he seemed to enjoy it. He learned a lot of moves and more than anything stayed very active, which was my reason for signing him up in the first place. Last Wednesday was the last night and they ended the season with a tournament. Each kid weighed in and was matched up against 3 other wrestlers. Well because Colton is pretty big for a kindergartner he was matched up against a couple first graders and one kid who I am pretty sure was a second grader. He didn't win any of his matches but he didn't seem to mind at all. He still won a medal just for participating and he received a picture of the high school wrestling team and after the tournament the Seniors autographed the picture for the Little Wrestlers... Colton thought that was pretty cool. He said he had fun and he looks forward to next fall when he can wrestle again.
Colton is darling. I bet it's adorable watching little kindergardners wrestling around on the mats. Much better than grown sweaty men. :)
