EQUIPMENT & UNIFORM
What equipment and/or uniform do I need to wrestle?
WRESTLING SHOES
REQUIRED (Athlete must purchase)
There are a lot of good wrestling shoes out there. Here are some of my favorite brands (click on brand name below to link to the company's site):
*NOTE*
Wrestling shoes are usually hard to find in the store. You can find limited brands in-stock at stores around wrestling season, however, I recommend you purchase wrestling shoes online.
WORKOUT CLOTHES
REQUIRED (Athlete must purchase)
This is your gear for practice.
Gear shall not contain profanity or images/advertisements for drugs/alcohol/substances.
Practice clothes should be tight fitting.
Tops

Compression tops
Tank Tops
Bottoms
Shorts
Sweats
Leggings
Fight Shorts/Spats
LARGE WATERBOTTLE
REQUIRED (Athlete must purchase)
To keep the need to leave the wrestling room to a minimum, athletes are required to bring a water bottle to every practice (and competition).
Your water bottle should be large enough that a refill will NOT be required in the middle of practice.
COMBINATION LOCK
REQUIRED (Athlete must purchase)
At the beginning of the season you will get to choose an empty locker in the Legacy Athletic Locker room.
Please keep all non-required workout items in your locker during practice.
No large bags or equipment will be allowed within the wrestling room during practices.
Please give Coach Lamb your Locker Number and Combo once chosen. (This will be kept private and only given back to you if you forget your code or if your locker is not cleared out at the end of the season.)
UNDERGARMENTS
REQUIRED FOR COMPETITION ONLY (Athlete must purchase)
Undergarments must be worn under competition singlets.
Bottoms: All contestants shall wear a suitable undergarment that completely covers the buttocks and the groin area.

A high-neck sports bra or short-sleeve compression shirt is required to be worn under the singlet at competition events.

MOUTHGUARD
REQUIRED -- IF YOU HAVE BRACES (Athlete must purchase)
A tooth and mouth guard for both the upper and lower teeth are required to be worn if braces are present on both.
A mouthguard is considered optional if you do not have braces.

Some wrestlers enjoy knee pads. Some do not. This purchase is completely up to the athlete.
