Tournaments & Competition
Competing in wrestling tournaments is optional but highly recommended for those looking to take their skills to the next level.

They also help athletes learn valuable lessons in perseverance, mental toughness, and sportsmanship. Wrestling in tournaments allows kids to set goals, track progress, and celebrate their hard work while being part of a supportive team environment. Our coaches will guide parents and wrestlers on which tournaments are best suited for their skill level and readiness.

“As a parent, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better sport or coach for your child than Johnson City Wrestling Club and Coach Tom. The program emphasizes resilience, pushing kids to grow not just as wrestlers but as individuals. My son has made incredible strides, gaining a newfound confidence that has transformed his approach to school, home, and life. As a parent who had no prior experience with wrestling, I wholeheartedly recommend this club to any parent looking to see their child thrive.”

“Johnson City Wrestling Club has been great for our 7 and 5 year old boys. Each of them came into the club with a little bit of experience on the mat but coach Jamison has helped them improve drastically. He makes the practice fun to keep them engaged but also pushes them to be the best versions of themselves.”

“It’s amazing to see how much growth and discipline our sons have gained in such a positive and encouraging environment since attending Johnson City Wrestling Club. The practices are challenging and fun and the kids are encouraged to do their best and support one another. The sense of teamwork and sportsmanship this team builds is exactly what youth sports should be about. Highly recommend to any family looking for a great program and an incredible community.”

“My daughter Emerie started wrestling with Coach Jamison at 3 years old (now 4), and she placed 6th at States her first season of wrestling under his training! He is so knowledgeable of the sport, and breaks down each practice to where all children learn regardless of skill level! Not only was he the encouraging face she ran to find at practice & tournaments. But he was in her corner all the way, no matter win or loss! I also truly appreciate that he respects each child & holds them accountable so they can perform their best! Emerie loves training under Coach Jamison, and has found her wrestling family through her teammates!”
