NC STATE CAMP 

Pat Popolizio's Wolfpack Wrestling Camps
June 28-30, 2024

My staff and I are dedicated to promoting excellence in character and performance on the mat, while stressing the importance of learning life skills off the mat. These camps will give wrestlers and coaches an opportunity to gain valuable insight on what it takes to be successful at the highest levels of wrestling in high school and college from clinicians who have lived it! The clinicians were chosen for this camp specifically for two reasons: character, and their ability to teach technique successfully to wrestlers at all levels of wrestling. We believe that every link in a chain is important, so every individual is viewed as a valuable member of our camp. Come to find out for yourself!
