U.S.A. Wrestling Competition

4/22/2019

0 Comments

 
During the school holidays I (Matthew Stackhouse) went to Indiana, U.S.A for Wrestling as part of a New Zealand Cultural Development team with other wrestlers my age.
We stayed with three different host families. The first was in Carmel, the second in Jeffersonville and the third was in South Bend. ​These schools ranged in size from 2500 students to 5000. The competition was tough; we trained and wrestled with the school teams.
We went down town Indianapolis to the malls. On another day we had a tour around the Notre Dame University. We went to several museums, and also a Indiana Pacers vs Boston Celtics basketball game. We got a bus tour around the Indy race track. During our stay we went to Chicago to see the Navy Pier and go on a ferris wheel. The Indiana coach shouted us pizza that was deep dish.
I would like to thank Hurunui College for the grant that helped to make this trip possible and to my coaches Steve Hill and Dean Smith at Rangiora Wrestling club.
