  7. Parent Involvement: As with anything we encourage parents to be involved in your child's activities. If you as parents would like to "get out on the mat" and help out the kids feel free to do so, all rules still apply. We also encourage you to become involved in the Austin Youth Wrestling Club. The Club holds a monthly meeting the first Tuesday of each month, 7:30 pm at Sportts. Parent participation in the planning, organizing of practices, and Austin tournaments is welcome.
