The online FHC Spartan Wrestling store will be open through 11:59 pm Sunday night, so order now! Orders will be delivered to FHC and distributed at practices. Several individuals were interested in stadium seats, but minimum ordering quantities did not allow me to put those in the store. If we have at least 12 individuals who will purchase, however, I can place a bulk order. Please let me know if you are interested. Cost is $40. Reminder, there is a fee of $3 per order, so you may want to combine your family’s orders into one to save a few dollars. Happy shopping! Thanks, LeAnn Cross

Hello all,
I just want to make sure everyone noticed on the calendar that the practice schedule has been adjusted for this week due to the cafeteria being used for an Iron Chef competition Tuesday evening. The advanced room, which practices in the wrestling room, will have a NORMAL Tues./Thurs. practice schedule. The minis and the beginner/intermediate group, which both practice in the cafeteria, will practice WEDNESDAY and Thursday this week, 6-8 p.m. If you still owe registration fees, a singlet deposit or a birth certificate, please make arrangements with me personally to turn those in ASAP. Thanks, and have a great week! LeAnn Cross Spartan Wrestling Club Train the Spartan way! Registration begins for the 2019-20 season next week! Two signup sessions to choose from: Wednesday, Oct. 9, 6:30-8 p.m. OR Tuesday, Oct. 22, 6:30-8 p.m. Look for the signup tables in the lobby at FHC. New this year, Junior Spartans and Mini Spartans will wrestle on the same nights. That should make many parents who have both very happy! Also, mark your calendar for the Spartan Kickoff Wrestling Tournament on Sunday, Dec. 1! For your convenience, you may fill out the forms below and bring them with you to registration. You will still need to attend so your child can get fitted for a singlet and pay a singlet deposit. Please be advised that if you are paying by check, you will need a separate check for EACH singlet deposit. (Three kids, three check deposits.) Fee payments may not be made on the same check as singlet deposits. Hope to see everyone there!

You can download the camp flier there, as well. We hope to see as many of our youth wrestlers there as possible. It is also a great chance for our middle-school kids to work out side-by-side with our high-school team. We will have an additional camp for wrestlers entering K through 3rd grade. That camp will be held 5-7 p.m. June 11-13 (Tues./Wed./Thurs.). This is a good time for younger kids to advance their skills or to try wrestling for the first time in a fun setting. This camp is not live on the fhcsummercamps.com site yet but will be soon. Thanks to all those who RSVPd for the banquet this Sunday, April 14! If you forgot to RSVP but would like to come, please send me your info quickly so I can get an accurate head count. If you have other events going on that day and are not sure whether you will make it on time, give me a heads up and we'll see what we can do. We will have some free play/game time before we eat and start the awards portion of the banquet.
Don't forget to include:
Note the Location Change to Scott A. Lewis Park! The pavilion location for the banquet has changed. Our pavilion is now at Scott E. Lewis Park (instead of Legacy Park). You can find Scott A. Lewis Park within the Miralago Subdivision off Mid Rivers Mall Drive at 1000 Scott A. Lewis Lane. What to bring:
Hope to see everyone Sunday! Unfortunately, due to problems finding an acceptable low-cost venue for our banquet, we are going to have to postpone it a couple of weeks. The new date is Sunday, April 14. We hope you'll join us at 4 p.m. at the Legacy Park pavilion in Cottleville. The club will provide meats and paper products, and we ask that each family provide a side dish or dessert, as well as their own drinks.
You may also bring balls, wiffle bats, frisbees, or games for the kids to play. There are picnic tables at the pavilion, but you may also want to bring chairs for additional seating. All wrestlers will receive their participation certificates, and several special awards will be given, as well. Please RSVP no later than Sunday, April 7 with the following information: Wrestler name Number of adults attending Number of children attending Whether you will bring a side dish or dessert Hope to see everyone there! If any of our middle-schoolers have interest in learning and competing in freestyle and/or Greco-Roman wrestling styles this spring, attached is info on the Savage Wrestling Club, which is run by former Wentzville Holt HS coach Jason Moore and is intended for wrestlers from the Francis Howell and Wentzville school districts and surrounding areas. Practice begins tonight at Francis Howell, but wrestlers may join at another practice if they cannot make it tonight. Print out the registration form below and bring it with you to practice.   We hope your wrestlers enjoyed this season and that they have grown as wrestlers and individuals. There will be opportunities for them to continue their development during the off-season, with camps this summer and other resources such as Purler Wrestling Academy. (Spartan wrestlers get a discount since we are a host facility.) Stay tuned for our camp schedule, as it is being finalized now. Camps for grades four and up will be published on the fhcsummercamps.com web site. We may be doing a smaller camp just for our younger wrestlers; we will let you know if and when that is scheduled.
Singlet Returns Remaining opportunities to turn in singlets for a refund of your deposit are as follows: 1) During our USA state wrestling practice in the cafeteria this Thursday night, 6-8 p.m. 2) At our year-end banquet 3) Dropping it off at the FHC main office, clearly marked with your wrestler's name, to the attention of Coach Cross by March 31. Save the Date! We are planning our year-end banquet for Sunday, March 31. We'll let you know the exact time and place as soon as we get it settled. Late afternoon or early evening is our goal. Come join the fun! All wrestlers will receive a participation certificate, and special award winners will also be recognized. Thanks for being a Spartan wrestling family this season, and best of luck to those Spartans competing in the Missouri USA State Tournament this weekend! There were many successes this weekend! Congrats to:
1) the 20 Spartans who advanced to the USA Region D Tournament next Saturday in Mexico, Mo., by placing in the top six at districts 2) the many Spartans who placed at the AAU Gold and Blue State tournaments at St. Charles West, including GOLD Champions Jayce Davis and Christian Tucker and BLUE Champions Miller Austin, Logan Rubinstein, Gavin Linsman and Gage Basala 3) Jr. Spartan Miller Austin, who earned the AAU Triple Crown award by becoming champion at AAU State, the Missouri Challenge and the Ozark District tournament this season! Great way to represent, Spartans! USA Series Those wrestlers advancing to the Region D tournament should visit the tournament page on Trackwrestling for full info. To find the flier, go to Trackwrestling.com and search the events for Region D. It will come up. If you enter the tournament and click on the Information tab, you can click on the link to the flier from that page. (Copying the link never seems to work or I'd have pasted it here for you.) If you haven't made a hotel reservation for Friday night after weigh-ins yet, don't delay. Rooms in Mexico fill up fast, but you can also stay in Kingdom City and have a little longer drive. If your son places in the top FOUR at regionals, he will qualify for the state tournament the following weekend in Kansas City. If this is the case, please find Julie Graham in the stands and pay her the $35 entry fee for the state tournament AND order/pay for state T-shirts if desired BEFORE LEAVING. Note that all wrestlers must weigh in and show up ready to wrestle even if they have four or fewer wrestlers in their brackets in order to advance to the state tournament. It is a good idea to make a tentative hotel reservation just in case if you haven't already. Some of the team are staying at the Homewood Suites near the airport, but there are plenty of places to choose from. You can find the state tournament flier by searching Trackwrestling for 2019 Missouri USA State Wrestling Tournament. Singlet Turn-ins Just a reminder that I will be at FHC from 6 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 26 for singlet turn-ins. Please make sure all singlets are clean before turning in. It's been a great season, Spartans! Stay tuned for information on our year-end banquet and summer camps! |
