Morristown Grappler's Club
The
Morristown Grapplers Club is a not for profit organization
dedicated to providing kids, ages 7-14 years, in the Morristown
area the chance to learn the sport of wrestling through competition.
The
children also learn the important values of self confidence,
motivation and leadership.
This
club was founded in 2001 by two young brothers, Matt and Bryan
Manahan who initially funded the program from their own savings.
The
Manahan brothers are lifelong residents of Morristown and
have been wrestling coaches in town for seven years.
Bryan
is a middle school math and science teacher who knows the
values that a successful youth sports program can bring to
the student athletes in his classroom.
