Deschutes Mat Club offers training and practice groups for wrestlers of all ages and ability levels. It is the goal of DMC to offer age specific training for all of our athletes geared towards challenging each individual and developing each individual to the best of THEIR abilities. At DMC, athletes are placed into training groups called Squads based on their grade level and skill development. Our Squads are designed to reflect our core values of hard work, growth, and team pride — all while aligning with our club colors: White, Red, and Black.
