Product Description:
A wrestler's ability to execute his moves quickly and instinctively is often the difference between winning and losing a match. Drills are the most effective practice activities to use to ingrain the instinctive actions and reactions essential for wrestling success.

The Wrestling Drill Book includes match-tested drills, carefully chosen by coaches who are experts in the specific techniques and tactics they cover. Each drill is described in detail with illustrations, modifications, and coaching points for maximum effectiveness. Beginning with essential movement drills and progressing to takedowns, escapes, reversals, rides, and pinning combinations, the book addresses each fundamental that wrestlers must hone in order to become champions. A customizable practice plan demonstrates how drills can be combined and sequenced for the ultimate wrestling workout.

Make practice time productive time. The Wrestling Drill Book is an essential manual for success on the mat.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Wrestling Drill Book
Dr. Bill Welker has put together a great resource in "The Wrestling Drill Book." This would be the perfect gift for any rookie coach, and a valued resource for coaches of any experience level. Any coach or wrestler will find drills and suggestions in this book that they will benefit from. The sequential photos and sequence of "Setup," "Action," and "Coaching Point" makes it a practical and easy to follow tool.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very informative, Great Book
My son is in his 3rd year of wrestling, and my husband helps coach him and some other boys in the program (they are part of AAU youth wrestling).

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Drill Book for In-Season and Off-Season Wrestling Perfection of Moves!
As the editor and author of "The Wrestling Drill Book," I first want to thank the wrestling community throughout the country for nationwide acceptance of the book. It's a no nonsense, "cut to the chase" book that emphasizes the importance of drill work and perfecting wrestling moves in the neutral, bottom, and top positions. The book fundamentally teaches the science of "memorization," physical memorization of move development in the mat sport.
One hall of fame coach put it bluntly, ... Read More
