Join the Mo-Town Grapplers and Discover the Fastest-Growing Sport in America

Girls wrestling is one of the fastest-growing sports in the nation — and it’s taking off right here in Morristown! More than 74,000 girls now wrestle in high school, a five-fold increase over the past decade. New Jersey now has its own district, regional, and state championships for girls, and Morristown High School is launching its first all-girls wrestling team this season.

To help inspire the next generation of female wrestlers, the Mo-Town Grapplers Club is excited to announce the launch of our new Girls Clinic team — a supportive and fun environment for girls in grades 2–5 to build confidence, strength, and friendships while learning the fundamentals of wrestling.

💪 Why Wrestle?

  • Builds athleticism, coordination, and confidence

  • Teaches discipline and self-defense

  • Encourages resilience and mental toughness

  • Fosters lifelong friendships

  • Most of all — it’s fun!

🧡 Girls Program

We’re excited to launch Morristown’s first all-girls wrestling program! Each week, all girls in grades 2–8 will come together for one dedicated all-girls practice focused on skills, drills, and team camaraderie. In addition, girls will join the co-ed teams for extra training — Clinic girls will have one additional co-ed practice each week, while JV/Varsity girls will have two.

  •  Pre-Clinic (Grades K–1):
    Saturday morning co-ed practices focused on movement, fun, and fundamentals.
  • Girls Clinic (Grades 2–5):
    Our new girls-only program meets Monday and Wednesday evenings, with optional Saturday scrimmages. It’s the perfect introduction to wrestling — in a supportive, confidence-building setting designed for beginners.
  • Girls JV/Varsity (Grades 6-8)
    For advanced and experienced girl wrestlers (6th–8th grade, or 3rd–5th with 2+ years of competition). Practices focus on developing strength, advanced skills, and competitive performance.

Wrestling is more than a sport — it’s a community. Whether your child wants to try something new or join a team that challenges and empowers them, the Mo-Town Grapplers are ready to welcome you to the mat!
