One of Minnesota's premier youth wrestling clubs, the Chaska Stallions provides an opportunity for students in grades K-6th to learn the fundamentals of wrestling while simultaneously building character skills that will benefit them throughout their lives. Serving the Southwest area surrounding Chaska and Chanhassen, our team participates in a balanced mix of local, regional, and national wrestling tournaments. We are very active in the community and benefit from a solid base of families, board members and coaches. The Stallions welcome wrestlers to attend a wrestling practice and learn first-hand what the team is all about.
