Join us this June at the National Wrestling and Performance Center for Built on the Mat, a one-day wrestling clinic featuring legendary coach Barry Davis, Assistant Coach at the U.S. Naval Academy.

A three-time NCAA champion, Olympic silver medalist, and former head coach at the University of Wisconsin, Davis brings a lifetime of elite-level knowledge, technical precision, and championship mindset to every session.

The day is split into two focused training blocks: a morning session for grades K–6, where young athletes will develop foundational skills, movement, and body control in a fast-paced, positive environment; and an afternoon session for grades 7–12, centered on advanced techniques, strategic drilling, and mental preparation for high-level competition.

Designed for athletes who are serious about growth, this clinic offers rare access to one of wrestling’s most accomplished and respected figures.

Don’t miss this chance to train with a legend and level up your game—Built on the Mat is where champions begin.
