Our Story

A Room Built to MoveWrestlers Forward.

Now in our fifth decade, Wizards Wrestling is one of the area’s established youth wrestling programs. Each season, wrestlers from across McHenry County train with us, from kids learning their first stance to experienced competitors preparing for the highest levels of youth wrestling.

Our goal is simple: introduce wrestling in a competitive but positive environment and help every athlete reach their potential through serious commitment. State qualifiers, state placers, high school wrestlers, and college athletes have all come through the room, but progress is measured one wrestler at a time.
