Here’s what to bring:
  • Please make sure valuables are kept secure — Train to Win Wrestling Camps isn’t responsible for lost items.
  • Label any neutral gear (like Train to Win Camps clothing or towels) with your name.
  • Every camper should bring a roll of athletic tape.
  • Toiletries must include a strong antibacterial soap. We recommend Dial.
  • A refillable sports water bottle labeled with your wrestler’s name is required for all training sessions and meals. Water fountains are available for refills.
  • Bring a mesh laundry bag to separate and air out dirty clothes.
  • Two towels are recommended so one can dry while the other’s in use.
  • For outdoor rec time, pack sunscreen and bug repellent (lotion or oil only — no sprays).
  • Wrestling gear is essential. Headgear is optional, but neoprene knee pads are highly recommended. Bring two pairs so one can dry out between practices.
  • Bedding includes a twin-size sheet set, blanket, and pillow. Beds are provided in air-conditioned campus housing.
  • Pack enough workout clothes based on your wrestler’s needs. Some sweat more than others — plan for multiple outfit changes, especially tops.
  • On-campus private showers are available daily. Cleanliness is a top priority, so it’s better to overpack than underpack.
  • We’ll make weekly Walmart runs for campers who need essentials or extra food.
  • Campus housing features suite-style living with free washers, dryers, kitchen appliances, and more. (Bring your own detergent or purchase on site.)
If you have any questions about packing — especially related to allergies or medications — just reply and we’ll be happy to help!

  • Athletes grouped by experience, weight, and goals
