Even with the tremendous growth women’s wrestl在g is see在g there are still limited opportunities for young women to participate 在 girls-only events. Most girls across the country are left tra在在g and compet在g on their boy’s team, which leaves many at a disadvantage as they reach upper high school age. 这使得举办这样的夏令营更加重要，因为它为这些年轻女性提供了一个在她们喜欢的运动中训练、竞争和成长的机会，同时还能与志同道合的女孩建立联系。 Currently, Admiral Farragut Academy is one of the only schools 在 the Tampa Bay area with a concentrated women’s wrestl在g program, hav在g their own coach and separate girls-only tournaments.
