Copperheads Wrestling
Copperheads
wrestling club Inc. is a non-profit, Chartered USA Wrestling Club
operating out of Cameron NC. It was formed in 1997 at Scotland High
School by Head Coach, Matt Ragsdale. The club was designed to give kids
of any age (5 years to 50 years) the opportunity to wrestle outside of
the high school season.
In 2001, Coach Ragsdale was given the opportunity to
become the head coach of the Union Pines High School Wrestling team and
the Copperheads were moved to Cameron NC. The club has sustained over
15 members per year since its inception.
We teach the three styles of wrestling, (Folk
style, Freestyle, and Greco Roman) with the basic fundamentals staying
the same. These styles offer a diverse training regiment, create self
discipline and make the wrestler more self reliant.
Our track record speaks for itself, The UP Vikings
were the undefeated Conference Champions and showed very well in
Division and State competition for the 05-06 season. This success is a
direct reflection on our Copperheads wrestling program. Interest is
growing every year and we are once again looking forward to a
successful season!
The Copperheads season runs from March to August
with training available year round. The season includes several
Wrestling camps and a list of sanctioned USA Wrestling meets in various
locations across the Eastern Seaboard. The UP High School Viking’s
season unofficially starts September and ends sometime in March. As you
can see this is a year round program packed with activity!
