In the Summer of 2011 the Haddonfield Wrestling club is going to wrestle in Switzerland and Italy. We will compete against club teams from both countries. We would like to offer this opportunity to the entire South Jersey Wrestling community. This is open for wrestlers and parents and we encourage parents to come. It is a 9 day trip and we will tour these sights.
