  • Don’t worry if you didn’t bring your gear with you; we have extra wrestling shoes and headgear in the room if needed.

    We’ll try to give more helpful directions on how to get to the wrestling room soon! If you are stopped by desk workers, tell them that you are here for club wrestling practice.

  • 2 minutes to take down your choice of MIT wrestler! Prizes TBD.

    If you are new/don’t know what a takedown is, we still invite you to come and give it a try! We’re happy to teach and demonstrate takedowns.

  • We’ve put in reservations for these locations but have not received confirmation. Check back here closer to CPW to see updated event locations!

    Note: Movie Night will be in 4-237 and the Takedown challenge will be on Briggs Field!
