Wrestling Mat Needed

[Matman1]

The wrestling program, at Pike Central, is currently without a mat due to the former administrators decision to sell it.

The former head coach is looking to purchase a wrestling mat for the team. Mat must be at least 40X40 and in good condition.

Anyone knowing of one for sale please respond to this thread.

 

Thanks,

I would look at Pinnacle. They sell reconditioned 40X40 mats for around $6500.

Thanks, I did look at that site.

What is the name brand of the mats used at the state.

If I am not mistaken they are a little cheeper.

Will Pike Central have a team this year?

Region8fan,

 

I guess if you want to call it a team. 6 possibly 7 kids. And two coaches that know nothing of the sport except for the money they are being paid. Not like the teams in the past. At least the previous teams competed against many of the top teams in the state and traveled all over the state to get the experience.

 

But now the former head coach wants to find a mat for them since the former administrator sold them to kill the program. Vendictive little person he was "IMO"

 

Sad situation, again.

Is the school buying a mat for the program or Coach Rocca buying it? Call Crown Gym Mats in Barrington,Illinois. They handled used mats also.

Thanks for the info. I do not believe the school will purchase the mat,Thus I believe the former coach is looking into purchasing one ...And believe this ot not....No strings attached either.

They are cheaper. They are by a company called Dollamur. The contact they announced at the State Meet was Dave Coons. I am sure he would help out in a pinch.
