Welcome to the Lions Wrestling Club.  We promote the sport of wrestling primarily in the McLean, Langley, and Great Falls areas, and also in the Arlington and Falls Church areas.  We welcome beginners as well as experienced wrestlers ages 5 to 14 years old.  Our wrestlers will be the future stars of the Langley, McLean, Arlington, and Falls Church high school wrestling teams. 

Our mission is to teach the sport of wrestling and to teach the values and character traits that wrestling reinforces.  These include dedication and hard work as the path to success, a refusal to give up, an attitude of personal confidence, and most of all, taking responsibility for one's own successes and failures.
 
We are part of the Northern Virginia Wrestling Federation (NVWF) which consists of 33 teams and 1,700 wrestlers throughout the northern Virginia region.  Tournaments are usually held on Sundays, starting in December and continuing until the end of February.

The Liberty Mat Club is a wrestling practice at McLean High School run by McLean High School coach Kenneth Jackson and also by Lions Coach Ed Ryan.  It runs through next fall's wrestling season. It's a great way to keep in shape and to keep technique sharp in the off season.

Here are the details

• No signup or advance notice required - just show up
• No cost
• No commitment expected
• All ages welcome
• Location is McLean High School
• You will need to get a USA Wrestling Card if you participate regularly
• Times are Tue and Thu 6:30 - 8:30

The only caveat is that you should coordinate with someone so that you have someone of similar weight and abilty for your wrestler to wrestle.

Please if you are interested and I will help you coordinate with someone similar in weight and abilty.
