Ready….Wrestle!
In all the rush of the Thanksgiving holiday, we forgot to mention a new city program and one that is very near and dear to our heart. Back in the day before we took up the thoroughbred lifestyle, one of our passions outside of the beautiful game (soccer to those who are unaware) was discovering the intensity of the discipline of wrestling. After the mortal combat in gym class, we scooted over to the open tryouts for the high school team. Short of joining the military after high school it’s a test to see how you measured up physically in a fairly defined mano a mano sport. After quietly taking barbs from other loudmouths about being there to become the water boy, Da Horsey trampled everyone in the weight category forcing the self-proclaimed favorite to run around the auditorium in a leather bomber jacket to chase a spot in a lower weight class. That and being named captain of our NYC high school team is one of our fonder high school memories and we hope this program becomes successful in its own rite giving equal or better to all its participants. Ready…..wrestle!
