"If you're a wrestling coach or a fan of the sport, you can't afford to miss this clinic! I've gone the last 10 years; great clinicians, technique and camaraderie. An excellent way to start out the season"
-Dwayne Buth, La Costa Canyon HS

 "I thoroughly enjoy the Monterey Clinic of Champions. Not only do I get a chance to learn some of the current technique, but also how to teach it to my wrestlers. My coaches and I always learn great drills and ideas that we
implement into our program."
-Clark Conover - Granada H.S.

"I have enjoyed the Monterey Clinic since its beginning. I have always felt the Monterey Clinic has sought out the best clinicians that wrestling has to offer. It is always a great place to socialize with those coaches whom you're trying to beat the rest of the year!"
-Richard Fox, Ponderosa HS

"The Monterey Clinic has been a very special place for me as far as my career in wrestling goes. I have been at Lemoore HS for 20 years and have attended all the Monterey clinics these years. Being able to take bits and pieces of information, from wrestling techniques, to fund raising , to networking with other coaches, has been invaluable to me as a wrestling coach. Going into my 31st year of coaching, I look forward once again to attending the Monterey Clinic. I feel it seems to jump-start me and get my passions going for the new season. Hope to see everyone there."
-Kent Olson, Lemoore HS

"The Monterey Coach's Clinic has become the finest wrestling coach's clinic in America. Each year's clinic is better than the previous one. I always come away from my weekend in Monterey with new technique, fresh ideas, and an excitement for the upcoming season. I highly recommend it!"
-Jeff Roberts, Head Coach Clovis West HS

What They Say About Monterey

"I've been attending the Monterey Clinic for the past 10 years. I've seen the greatest wrestlers and coaches our sport has to offer. I've not only learned great set ups and finishes to proven techniques, but also how great high school coaches have built their programs into perennially tough championship teams. I've learned how they run their practices and how they train for a season from beginning, to drilling, to peaking at the end. There's nothing like learning from the best coaches in the nation who do the same thing I do, coach high school kids. Every year I have taken something back to our room that has made us better.
- Dave Sanchez, Co-Head Coach, Del Oro HS


I have attended every clinic since I became a head coach and moved to
California. Every year I have taken something away from there that
significantly impacts my program. Mostly because it is a chance to listen to real high school coaches and pick their brains. The technique is outstanding, but the really important part is the clinics focus on getting successful high school coaches to speak about the things that matter to us.
Chris Davis, Vista Wrestling

"I have been attending the Monterey Clinic of Champions for over ten years and the quality and organization have been top notch!"- -Steve Okamura Watsonville H.S.

We have attended the Monterey Clinic religiously for years, and for our
coaching staff it has represented the beginning of the wrestling season.
We highly value the chance to get away from home, begin to focus on what we want to accomplish in the upcoming season, and feel energized for the long road ahead. Inevitably, we always walk away learning something new to add to our room. The moment you cease to be students of the sport, the sport will pass you by.
-Adam Wight and Clint Birch
Vacaville High School

It’s the perfect way to get focused on start the wrestling season get a jump on the competition with up to date moves, knowledge, and attitude. We wouldn’t think of missing the Clinic of Champions.

What They Say About Monterey
 "One of the great things about the Monterey clinic is how it keeps coches contemporary. We have had clinicians like Zeke Jones, Rulon Gardner and Cael Sanderson giving techniques sessions just weeks after their great accomplishments. This clinic does a great job of balancing clinicians. that emphasize the different aspects of youth, high school.collegiate and international wrestling. The clinic is great for developing new technique or improving existing technique. It provides a great learning atmosphere with the opportunity to meet with other coaches both professionally and socially. We like seeing the ways different high school coaches organize and run their practices, drill time, and live wrestling time. We've been coming to the Monterey Clinic since the early 80's. It always gives us something fresh to bring back to our program."
-Mark Bowe & Vince Bicocca - Calaveras H.S.

 "I have been coaching for over 35 years and have attended camps and clinics from the East to the West coasts. If you want to give your team the winning edge, I urge you to attend the Monterey Clinic of Champions. The inspirational speakers and cutting edge clinicians will leave you energized, motivated and excited about the upcoming season. I'm looking forward to my 20th year of attending this year's gem of a clinic!"
-Ed Zuckerman - Willows H.S.
