AWA Georgia Youth Camps
At AWA Georgia, our vision includes offering structured youth wrestling camps designed to help athletes continue improving while enjoying the process.
Our camps will focus on learning new techniques, building systems, and developing strong fundamentals in a positive and fun environment. We believe young wrestlers should stay involved in the sport during the summer — even if they are also playing baseball, football, or other sports.
These camps are built to keep kids engaged with wrestling and involved in the sport even if its just for a few days in the summer!
Seasonal camp announcements will be released throughout the year.
For updates on upcoming camp dates or to be added to our interest list, contact us directly.
Future AWA Georgia Camp Series
As AWA Georgia continues to grow, we will be introducing specialized camps focused on specific positions and competitive systems.
🔥 Funky Fresh: Our premiere offensive creativity camp. Athletes will learn scramble systems and the basics to scrambling to not only defend but look to score!
🔒 Alcatraz: A top-position focused camp working on turns, riding systems, pressure, and building dominance from the most controlling position in wrestling.
🎩 Houdini: Escape and reversal mastery. Wrestlers will develop the skills and techniques they need to never be ridden again!
👑 Takedown King: Neutral position dominance. Focused on setups, finishes, re-attacks, and building confidence on your feet.
These camps are part of AWA Georgia’s long-term development plan and will be announced as seasonal training opportunities become available.

Testimonials
Weston is an amazing coach and mentor throughout my junior and senior year of high school. He helped me define my style of wrestling as well as have a great pre match strategy. He helped me with my confidence not only in wrestling but in life as well!
Wisconsin State Champion
Weston is highly intelligent, hardworking, and extremely dedicated to his craft. More importantly, he genuinely cares about the kids he coaches. He takes the time to understand each athlete, meets them where they are, and pushes them to grow—not just as competitors, but as people. His commitment to doing things the right way and putting athletes first is evident in everything he does. During his time at AWA, Weston showed a strong work ethic, reliability, and a willingness to learn and improve. He approaches coaching with humility, passion, and attention to detail, which makes him highly effective and well respected by athletes, parents, and fellow coaches alike.
4x NCAA Finalist
Weston has helped my son tremendously, not only from a technical, but mental standpoint as well. His emphasis on technique and long term outlook will pay dividends for anyone who trains with him!
