One of the ledgedary Maldonado fathers said to me, I as I entered my boys in their kid club. He said, more than likely you the parent will burn out before your kids do in this sport. All I can say is that he was absouletly correct. However, I also can say that it's been worth it. Traveling to all the different clubs to practice, the kiddie tournaments locally to the state and national tournaments it's been an exhausting road though it's been a fun ride.
As they entered HS I cut the umbilicale chord (very hard to do but necessay) and let my sons figure it out and let the coaches do their thing. I figured out that I couldn't keep up the pace as I did in the kiddie days, so hands off was the best policy for my situation.
The regualar HS seasons have always been fun but to be honest, once the state tournament starts it's an emotional roller coaster ride for the parent more so than for the kid. The most gut wrencing is ticket round at Semi-State...after that it's all gravey as you can sit watch great matches and relax.
The only advise I would suggest to parents is the " hands off policy" works, enjoy the little time you have while you can and leave the pressure on the wrestler and coaches.
