The clinic will run from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and will be free to members who possess the 2001-2002 USA Wrestling Membership Card.

The state of Connecticut hosted its’ first clinic with Terry Brands on September 23rd. The clinic was highly attended with over 200 coaches and wrestlers personally learning the wrestling skills and intensity that helped make Terry Brands a two time World Champion.
Connecticut is actively building its membership in USA Wrestling by bringing America’s real wrestling heroes to the state to share the wrestling skills and personal values that made them champions. Mike Quibble, organizer of the clinics, sees these opportunities as a great added value to being a USA Wrestling members. “The wrestlers and coaches here in Connecticut have a great reason to become a member of USA Wrestling with this set of clinics. People who came to the Brands clinic got a firsthand look at the value a membership in USA Wrestling provides”, stated Quibble.
