ABOUT US

Our Commitment To Excellence

 MISSION STATEMENT

While providing a challenging yet positive environment, Dover Wrestling will prepare members of the program to become total student-athletes that strive to reach their maximum potential academically, athletically, and socially.

Dover Wrestling provides a challenging and positive environment that prepares student-athletes who strive to reach their potential academically, athletically, and socially every day.

VISION STATEMENT

Dover Wrestling will be synonymous with success on and off the wrestling mat and will produce student-athletes at the elementary, middle and high school level that do their absolute best to improve the culture within their school and community. Those who graduate will give back to the program, thus building a strong support base for years to come.


The Tiger Takedown Club is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is meant to maximize opportunities to excel in the sport of wrestling for students in the town of Dover ages 3-19 on the recreation (youth), middle school, and high school level.  The Tiger Takedown Club fully funds Dover Recreation Wrestling.  All donations made to the Tiger Takedown Club are tax deductible.

Who is wrestling for?

Open to all

We strive to provide a safe, inclusive environment where every person, regardless of skill level, gender, race, ethnic background, religious beliefs or physical abilities will be accepted and appreciated. Wrestling is fun, but it is also a difficult sport; any person willing to come to practice and do the work will earn, and be shown, the proper respect. We are excited to welcome all to our community!

Is wrestling worth it?

Why should your kid try wrestling?

There are a lot of activities your kid could be doing, so why would you bother with wrestling? Here's a few reasons we think your child can benefit from wrestling:

  • It builds self-confidence
  • It teaches discipline and hard work
  • It develops physical strength and coordination
  • It creates lifelong friendships
  • It's an individual sport with team support
