The spring season freestyle wrestling program, which is independent of the high school sports programs, is a community based youth sport for anyone interested in wrestling, ages six through high school. Freestyle starts in March after the high school season ends.
Freestyle wrestling is run completely by volunteers and depends solely on the Colfax Green Machine, Inc., to help with facility use fees and club registration. This sport is open to the community.
