WHat can happen ?
Like any other physical sport, your child can get injured. I've seen a lot of bloody noses and black eyes. Most of the injuries I see actually happen when the kids are goofing around during a water break. Wrestlers can get injured during matches, my kids get their fair share of black eyes out of the 4 of mine at least 1 gets a black eye every season.
Paying attention in practice and learning to do moves correctly will help prevent most injuries. If a coach or referee see's a move being done incorrectly that can cause harm they will stop the wrestlers immediately. Safety comes first. Which is why I can't stress enough how important it is for your child to pay attention during practice. |
