Wrestling Camps

A new era has begun for the Blugold wrestling program with the hiring of Tim Fader as its 10th head coach in August 2015. Coach Fader brings more than 20 years of collegiate coaching experience to our campus.

The wrestling coaching staff, including coach and two-time Olympian Jim Gruenwald, and athletes are excited to share their knowledge and passion for wrestling with the youth of the Chippewa Valley. Bring your positive attitude and work ethic to this camp and be inspired while learning the fundamentals and strategies involved in becoming a successful wrestler.

Blugold Team Dual Camps

Entering grades 9-12  | June 5 & 26, 2021

This is a great team event for your kids to get lost mat time from 2020!  WE cap each Dual Camp at 16 teams and each team will wrestle five times on the day. In addition, there will be an opening clinic/warm up done by the Blugold Wrestling staff and wrestlers. So many opportunities in the Eau Claire area for team building the night before or the afternoon after the duals.
