The mission of Kellam Wrestling is not only to teach the fundimentals of the sport ,

but to also teach the philosophy of wrestling.

Pride, Honor, Dedication and Tradition, are all part of what it means to be a Kellam Wrestler.

What follows is the "Knight's Creed", and it applies to all Kellam Wrestlers....

Knights Creed


To Preserve to the end any enterprise begun
To eschew unfairness, meanness, and deceit
 To always display good sportsmanship
To guard the honor of  fellow Knights
To always outwork your opponent
To live by honor and for glory
To win or lose with dignity
 To keep the faith
To battle until the end
