“As women’s wrestling continues to grow, we are not only providing young women with a platform to excel athletically, but also to become leaders in their communities and beyond,” said Roberts. “Sports have the power to instill valuable skills and traits in young women that are crucial for success in any field. By partnering with organizations like UFC, we can help create opportunities for more girls and young women to participate in sports and develop the skills and confidence needed to become leaders who drive positive change in the world.”
Mensah, a former two-time National Champion, served as the lead instructor of the clinic along with members of her coaching staff.
“Youth freestyle clinics are an important part of establishing and building a local youth wrestling community, and on behalf of Schreiner University, we are proud of join UFC and Wrestle Like A Girl to help young women continue to break barriers,” said Mensah. “Texas has one of largest female wrestling communities in the country, and we need to host as many clinics like this as we can!”
