| Posted Sep 23/14 - Information About Weight Certification |
The UIL mandates that in order to compete in wrestling, each participant must undergo a weight certification assessment. The assessment is a scientific method of determining an athlete’s lowest possible weight while maintaining proper hydration and an appropriate body fat percentage. |
| Posted Aug 8/14 - Required Forms |
In order to stay in the wrestling athletic period, receive a locker, obtain practice gear, and work out before, during or after school, you need to have the following forms turned in to various offices. Click here for all the information. |
| Posted Jun 2/14 - Summer Training |
Summer training is the way to make yourself stand out to the SLHS Wrestling coaching staff. If you are a returing Varsity wrestler, take yourself to the elite level. If you are a returning JV wrestler, find your way to a full time starting Varsity spot. If you are an incoming freshman, show the staff that you are committed and are the next big thing. |
| Posted Feb 25/14 - Off Season |
Attention all Returning Wrestlers and Parents: |
| Posted Jun 4/13 - Summer Open Mat |
Get yourself and your journal to summer open mats. |
| Posted Jul 4/12 - Qualifying for 5th Period |
For all you returning wrestlers that are attempting to qualify for admission to 5th period athletics, don’t forget to meet all the requirements: |
| Posted May 23/12 - Summer Open Mat |
The Seven Lakes Wrestling Room will be open for training this summer Monday nights from 6:00pm to 8:00pm and Thursday mornings from 10:00am to 12:00pm. Come workout and get better. Changes will go out on the email list as well as on our facebook page "Seven Lakes Wrestling" (be sure to like us). |
| Posted May 23/12 - Summer Camps and Clinics |
Our handout section is loaded with local camps. When UIL Wrestling started, the closest quality camp was in Oklahoma. Now, you can find a quality camp in the Houston area nearly every week of the summer. We are very blessed and should take advantage of the great clinicians that come to our area. Get to a camp and get better! For all Spartan Wrestlers, I really like to see them at Chertow's camp in June and Coach King's Dynasty camp in July. You can always go to anything you want, but I really like our Spartans to train together. If you are new to wrestling, there is a great youth only camp (K-incoming 9th grader) put on by Katy ISD (which most KISD head coaches work) in July. I also recommend Coach King's Dynasty camp in July that has a basic skills session in a small group. There will also be open mat sessions at Seven Lakes during most of the summer. Train hard this summer and cash it in next season. |
| Posted Nov 18/11 - Weight Certification Opportunity |
If you are coming to wrestling from football and have not already completed your weight certification, there is another opportunity this Saturday. Read the background on the website and bring your singlet to the Katy HS field house at 11:00am to pass the hydration test. If you can not make that date or need more information, I will set up another date with the Katy trainer to take care of you. Thanks, and Spartan Up! |
| Posted Oct 24/11 - Practice Begins 10/31/11 |
| Mandatory practice begins on Monday, 10/31/11. All wrestlers not involved in a fall sport will be required to be there. Check your email for any time changes and refer to your parents' packet for rules and regulations. Let's Spartan Up! |
| Posted Oct 21/11 - Clinic 11/23 |
Jon Trenge clinic on Sunday, 11/23 at Revolution. Email Coach Demarchi if you need a flyer michaeldemarchi@katyisd.org |
| Posted Oct 5/11 - Chertow Weekend Warrior Camp |
Chertow's Weekend Warrior Camp is scheduled for Saturday, October 29th and Sunday, October 30th. This is a great camp with excellent clinicians. Many of our district rivals will be there and this is a great opportunity to scrap with the best of the best outside of our room. I highly recommend it for all grade levels and abilities. Even if you have seen Ken and Ian 10 times, there is still much to learn from the camp. |
| Posted Sep 7/11 - Join the Booster Club |
Please join the Seven Lakes High School Athletic Booster Club – The Spartan Club. We have done a great job of taking care of our own through parent and local business donations so we can run our very successful program. Our supply budget was cut by 25% and we will need to cover most of our entry fees. We just plain need support from as many financial sources as we can obtain. The Spartan Club divides its resources among the athletic programs at Seven Lakes using a formula based upon the number of student-athletes in each particular program and the percentage of those student-athletes who are booster club members. In short, we lose money if we have members of our team that are not members of the booster club. In this economy, I would never force families to join, but please, please consider joining. There are many levels of membership and several levels provide you with gifts. The link to The Spartan Club (and membership application) is below. Please print it out and return the application and checks to Coach Demarchi. |
| Posted Aug 29/11 - Email |
To keep this large team and their families informed, it is often necessary to use a large email list. Please make sure that your email is current on the list. You should have received an email on 8/25 titled “Contact” and another email on 8/29 titled “Update”. If you are not getting emails or want to add or change an address, please email Coach Demarchi so you can be added michaeldemarchi@katyisd.org |
| Posted Aug 28/11 - New Booster Club Rep. Needed |
| We are in need of new booster club parent rep. Michael Turner has been serving since the end of last season, but has since been elected to Vice President of Membership of The Spartan Club. He just can't do both jobs well. We really need a responsible parent to step up and take on this position. Please contact Coach Demarchi if interested. |

| Posted Apr 24/11 - Sponsorship |
The team is currently taking donations to support itself during the upcoming season. With severe budget cuts coming, we need to make up the short fall to maintain the same service to our student-athletes. No donation is too small. Get checks to Coach Demarchi made out to "The Spartan Club". If you have a relationship with a local business, there is a program to obtain cooperate sponsorship. The information is in the handout section. You can also contact Debra Scott, who heads our Cooperate Sponsorship Committee. |
| Posted Apr 19/11 - Video |
| Your generous donations were put to work again in the SLHS Wrestling Room directly impacting your student-athletes. Yesterday, I added an external hard drive to our laptop/flatscreen media center loaded with all 2010-2011 competition video. Now everyone can look back at their old matches as a training tool. |

| Posted Nov 2/10 - Support Our Sponsors |
| Our sponsors have given us over $1000 of support this year. Click on their banners, take advantage of their special offers, and tell them you are a Spartan Wrestling Fan. Without them, we would go without or have to come up with the money ourselves. |
| Posted Oct 27/10 - Wrestle Off Finals and Parents' Meeting |
Wrestle offs will take place Thursday, November 4th. |
| Posted Oct 9/10 - Fitness Tests |
Fall Fitness Tests are set to begin Monday, 10/18/10 during athletic periods. There are seven tests over the course of the week. The tests are very demanding and meeting the goal on all seven is very difficult. On Monday, everyone is weighed and that weight is used to determine goals. The goals, spring '10 results, and top three all time records are in the handout section. There are four lifts tested for a one repetition maximum: bench press, push press, hang clean, and wide stance dead lift. The four lifting goals are based off a percentage of Monday's body weight. There are three other tests with goals based upon current weight class: overhand pull ups, mile and quarter mile. Good luck to all!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Posted Sep 19/10 - Click Here to Learn how to Volunteer with SLHS Wrestling |
It is time again to ask for parent volunteers. I have always struggled with asking for help, but when it comes down to it, we are just too big and there are too many things for both coaches to accomplish and I don't want the team to suffer. I don't ever want anyone to give more time, money, or effort than they can afford. I also never want parents stuck working somewhere while their son/daughter is wrestling. Please click the following link from the handout section for more information on where we need help http://www.ballcharts.com/teams/handouts.php?team=slhswrestling. |
| Posted Sep 11/10 - Click here Mini Camp Information |

| Posted Sep 6/10 - Email Contact |
| Please check your email. A new email with update information was sent out Monday evening, 9/6. Make sure that you got that email. Please let me know if you need me to change your email, add an email, delete an email, change a spelling, or update anything. Most information is posted on the website, but still use email to notifly parents about several things throughout the year. |
| Posted Aug 5/10 - Physicals Tonight |
| Physicals Tonight 8/5/10 at SLHS main gym @ 6:00pm. |
| Posted Aug 4/10 - New Pictures |
| New Pictures have been added to the "Photos" button on the left. I am trying to add as much history as possible from years past. 2007-08 highlights are in there now. Keep checking back for more. |
| Posted Aug 2/10 - Junior High and Grade School Wrestlers!!! |
If you want to be a champion when you come to Seven Lakes and wrestle for the Spartans, your best chance is to get involved in a local youth wrestling program. Katy ISD does not currently support Junior High wrestling, so you will not get much wrestling exposure from your school. Clubs are the way to go. Wrestling is a technique sport, and the more experience you have before you get to High School the better. Click here for more information. |
| Posted Jul 30/10 - Rest and Break |
| Returning wrestlers will be ramping up intense training Monday, August 30th and new wrestlers will begin mat wrestling Tuesday, September 7th. From weight lifting, cardio training, mat wrestling, new skill aquisition, and open mats, training is just plain tough. We will be taking a break from summer training and therefore the room will be closed August 13th thru August 29th. Please plan accordingly. |
| Posted Jul 19/10 - New Summer Camps for late July and August |
There are two new camp/clinics just released from around the area. I have put them both in the handout section. There is a clinic this weekend at Paradigm and a new Camp at Spring Klein with Iowa State head coach, Kevin Jackson. That would be a good chance to get on a college coach's radar for recruitment. |
| Posted Jul 12/10 - Private Training |
Here is a great opportunity to get private training from an excellent wrestler as well as a great person. James King wrestled at Rockwall where he was a State Champion and All American. He wrestled at Ohio State before his career was cut short by injury. He is currently starting up a Young Life chapter in Baytown. Private wrestling lessons help pay the bills while he grows his ministry. For you serious wrestlers, I recommend giving James a call and getting on the mat with him. Contact information is below. |
| Posted Jul 11/10 - No More Extra Open Mat Time |
| Only the regular Tuesday and Thursday open mats from 10:00-12:00 remain this summer. It ends on August 12th. |
| Posted Jun 3/10 - Open Wrestling Facility |
| The Seven Lakes Wrestling Facility will be open for all Spartans with current physicals on file every Tuesday and Thursday from 10:00am thru 12:00pm. starting June 15th and going through August 12th. The mat, the weight room, and the cardio machines will all be available for summer training. Can't make those times? No problem. Get a few friends together and call or text Coach Demarchi. Odds are good that he is sitting around the house looking for an excuse to take his son up the Wrestling Facility. 281-989-2748 |

Get it done now. |
| Posted May 9/10 - Final Week of Open Training |
| Wrestlers need to complete one hour a week of open training. Training must take place in the SLHS Wrestling facility. Training can be watching wrestling video, working with an experienced wrestler, drilling, wrestling live, or even lifting weights. Wrestlers are required to sign in and sign out each day that they train. Wrestlers can work in any time segments they like, but must have at least one hour of total time in the room per week.
