Advanced Team
November - March
Our Advanced Team will practice with wrestlers from other schools with the Advanced group at the South Hills Wrestling Academy. These practices are for wrestlers who are comfortable with the fundamentals and want to make a bigger commitment to the sport. Wrestlers are expected to stay focused and push themselves for a two hour practice. Advanced Team members are expected to participate in open division tournaments beyond our South Hills League. The program is designed to prepare wrestlers for the Regional and State Championships in March. Registration is through SHWA, but participants are automatically registered for Mt. Lebanon and the South Hills League - you do not need to register for both Lebo and SHWA.
