FAQ’s

How do I sign-up?

Go to the Membership page and follow the step-by-step guide to get started. If you have any questions, please fill out our Contact Us form and we will respond as quickly as we can.

How do I navigate the TWA app and why do I need to use it?

A parent or guardian first needs to create an account for you and your kid(s) through TeamUp. Next, download the TWA app and login. Our app has club news, class booking, memberships, team store, chat, and more features. Please register for class ahead of time to track attendance!

Do you compete as a club at tournaments?

Our athletes compete at local, regional, and national events with an annual calendar we release. Competition is highly encouraged, with a seasonal schedule set by the club and details coordinated through our Band app community. Athletes affiliate with the club during tournament registration and coaches are there to support you and your athlete through the process. We emphasize effort, skill development, sportsmanship, and long-term growth. Early competition builds confidence, provides valuable experience, and fosters strong team camaraderie.

Will you train in the offseason?

We continue in the offseason and transition to freestyle for non-beginners. If kids have upcoming folkstyle competitions, we will prepare them for those. We incorporate weekly strength and conditioning workouts and we offer camp in the summer.

Do you offer a free trial?

We offer a 2-week free trial periodically! Athlete must adhere to our group guidelines for age and experience restrictions listed in Memberships.

What should my child bring for their first practice?

Practices get hot and sweaty. Our recommendation is to wear athletic shorts, t-shirt, wrestling shoes, and a wrestling headgear. You can purchase wrestling shoes and headgear nearby at Dick’s Sporting Goods or online. Bring a water bottle as well! For the 2-week trial, we usually have shoes to borrow if needed or they can workout in socks. Headgear is also not required for the trial period.

Do you offer merchandise?

We have t-shirts, singlets, beanies, water bottles, body wipes, and stickers for sale in the Store page and on our app. We’ve collaborated with Rudis for custom gear and will continue to work with them and a local company for gear drops in the future. Purchase must be made through our app.

Where are practices located?

1050 Classic Road, Apex NC 27539. You can find us on your iPhone map apps by searching “Triangle Wrestling Academy”. Please use the rear loading dock entrance door on the far left next to the garage and park up front.

Do you offer coaching for all age groups?

We offer training for boys and girls grades K-12 separated into Fundamentals (beginners), Youth Elite, and MS/HS Elite groups including a weekly Girls Only practice option. We group kids by age, experience, and skill level and adjust as needed. Find the group details under Membership.

Do you offer practices for girls?

Girls are absolutely welcome to join! Women’s wrestling is the fastest growing sport in the US. It’s encouraged to coordinate with other girls to attend the same practices outside of the weekly Girls Only sessions.
