West Ottawa Raises Another $170 For Pinning Down Autism

10/25/2016

HOLLAND, MI

This past weekend West Ottawa Wrestling and Myrmidon Training Systems partnered for the 2nd annual Myrmidon Attack Tournament at West Ottawa High School. While it was a fundraiser for both programs, a portion also went to Pinning Down Autism, a charitable organization whose mission is to respond and address the immediate needs of children and their families within our local communities that are affected by autism and to promote education and awareness of Autism Spectrum Disorder’s.
The Attack Tournament is unique, as it is the only one of its type. The Attack Bandz are utilized to keep score instead of traditional takedowns and escapes. The Attack Bandz themselves are a removable strap for wrapping around and securing to a wrestler's ankle. "Think like flag football, but for wrestling, " Coach Ryan Lancaster describes to new wrestlers."It's also a great learning tool," he went on to say, "that makes wrestling accessible to everyone, even kids that have never competed before."

How Do You Win?
  • Wrestlers will be paired into age groups and blocked weight classes. 
  • Pull the band off your opponent’s foot to score one point.
  • One three minute period. 
  • The Attack Bandz are also a training system designed for all athletes of various skill sets. 
  • Beginners, novices or even the most skilled wrestlers can benefit from Attack Bandz. 
$170.00 was donated to Pinning Down Autism. This, coupled with the Myrmdon Beach Tournament, has raised $310.00 for charity this year alone.
