How a Wrestling Academy Helps Kids Succeed: Setting Goals in Sports and School
Noel Torres, founder of Wichita Training Center Academy, won a DII National Wrestling Championship while attending Newman University (Wichita, KS) as a student. He later established Wichita Training Center, a local wrestling club that has grown to serve more than 200 kids. This year, he added the academy at Learning Lab Wichita, so his wrestlers who homeschool can practice wrestling and learn together.
Because Noel has experienced a great deal of success himself, he has some golden nuggets of wisdom to share – both with his student wrestlers and on this podcast.
