Welcome to the home of the Kalamazoo Premier Wrestling Club. In 2017 we partnered with Loy Norrix High School Wrestling, along with MYWAY, and started the KPWC to offer training and wrestling opportunities for beginners, intermediate and advanced youth within the Kalamazoo area. Our club is open to both boys and girls. (Grades K-8)
