Pride Wrestling Camp brings together a group of the best instructors and offers a very special dynamic to the students. Many of these coaches have been with the camp since the inception in 1989! One of the special elements of the camp is that many instructors have come through the camp as a student, then as a college counselor, and now as a coach. The coaches at Pride camp are a family and each coach is dedicated to making the camp experience at Pride the best experience available anywhere in the nation. This staff takes PRIDE in what we have developed over the last two decades.
