My Project

DMS has established its' very first middle school wrestling team. Each year, there are many expenses that come with running our team and our players are calling out to you for help. Our team currently does not have wrestling singlets to wear while competing. Wearing singlets for wrestling is important for a variety of reasons. Most importantly, singlets helps prevent a lot of injuries that loose-fitting clothes may cause. The problem with the latter is that the fingers, arms, and wrists might get caught up in the space between the fabric and the body. It may get further twisted and become more prone to injury. additionally, singlets allows the referee to see each wrestler's body clearly when awarding points or a pin. Please consider donating and help our kids compete safely and help us build a program that will benefit our student athletes for years to come.
