Practices & Expectations
- If your wrestler is still playing football, finish the season, then come to wrestling practice
- We will not have practice during FCPS Holiday Vacation
- If FFCPS cancels school due to inclement weather, we will not practice
- If we can get into the wrestling room on federal/school holidays- we will practice. Watch for email.
CYA’s NVWF practices will be held at Chantilly High School, Door #10, in the Wrestling Room across from the gymnasium.
Please be sure to label your wrestlers clothes and apparel.
What to Wear to Practice: T-shirt, shorts, and wrestling shoes. Purchase your wrestling shoes and headgear well in advance to be sure you have them for the first practice. There are several online sources as well as area sporting goods stores like Dick’s and Modell’s.
SINGLETS: CYA provides singlets for competition. We will issue them before our intersquad meet planned (to be determined). SINGLETS ARE NOT TO BE WORN IN PRACTICE.
HEADGEAR: All wrestlers are required to wear headgear in competition- CYA Wrestling will not furnish Headgear or Shoes, so please make plans to get your own.
WRESTLING SHOES: All wrestlers are required to wear wrestling shoes in practice and meets. No tennis shoes are allowed. As a safety precaution against communicable disease, no street shoes will be allowed on the mats in the wrestling practice room or during tournaments and meets. Wrestling Shoes are to worn on the mat only. Any wrestler wearing shoes outside will not be allowed on the mat with those shoes. Purchase your shoes now, before the season starts.
Each wrestler is responsible for replacement cost of their singlet - replacement cost for singlets is $100.
Equipment Deposit: Each wrestler will provide a deposit (check) of $100 for singlets issued by CYA Wrestling. When the singlet is returned at the end of the season, the deposit check will be returned. If singlets are not returned by a date announced at the end of the season, deposit checks will be cashed.
CYA Wrestling Clothing: Each wrestler will recieve a free t-shirt with their registration - we put a different ’slogan’ on the back each year. We also offer a Spirit Wear Pak for our wrestler’s to wear to tournaments. We do not use this as a revenue generating program- we offer these items at cost. Our aim is to fill the stands with ’purple.’
We will take one order for delivery in December before our tournaments begin.
