Two Time World Champion, Olympic Bronze Medallist, Three Time U.S. Nationals Champion, Two Time World Cup Champion, Two Time NCAA Champion, Dan Gable Trained, and one of America's greatest wrestlers.      The Terry Brands Tour will be in the northeast, just one week prior to the World Championships!      The chance to learn from an American wrestling legend is something no wrestling enthusiast should pass up.  The Terry Brands Tour is set to travel to five states and help grow the base of America's wrestling future.      The Brands tour will begin on Thursday, September 20th in New Jersey and then move to Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania on Friday, September 21st.  On Saturday, September, 22nd Brands will be in Dover, Delaware before stopping off in Hartford, Connecticut on Sunday, September 23rd.  Brands' five-state tour will end in Glens Falls, New York on Monday, September 24th.      What makes the Terry Brands Tour even more extraordinary is that the only requirement to attend the clinic is the cost of the membership card for USA Wrestling for the 2001-2002 season.  Wrestlers and coaches will be able to register as USAW members and be a part of a fantastic clinic by a true wrestling hero!    USA Wrestling's Executive Director, Rich Bender, looks at the Brands tour as a great opportunity for the states involved.  "Terry has proven himself on the world wrestling stage, and he will provide young wrestlers with outstanding motivation to be deeply committed to the sport of wrestling for years to come.  We hope that the coaches, wrestlers, and wrestling enthusiasts of these five states will turnout in large numbers to be part of such a valuable event", he said.       Terry Brands gained national recognition while wrestling for Dan Gable at the University of Iowa.  While there, he and his brother Tom relied on an aggressive and relentless attacking style that still is the trademark of the Brands name.  Terry went on to win two NCAA Division I Titles for the Hawkeyes.  In 1993, Terry and Tom Brands won World Titles in Toronto, Canada for the United States.  Terry returned to win a second World Title in 1995 in Atlanta, Georgia.  In 2000, after an extended absence from the international wrestling scene, Brands came out of retirement and earned the Olympic berth to Sydney, Australia.  Competing in the Olympic Games Terry earned a Bronze Medal.      Terry Brands, one of America's most accomplished wrestlers, has succeeded at all levels of wrestling.  His tour in support of the sport of wrestling will offer state organizations a valuable membership benefit for its prospective members.      According to Mitch Hull, Director of National Teams for USA Wrestling, "The Brands Tour is just another great example of why amateur wrestling supporters should join the growing ranks of USA Wrestling.  As the National Governing Body for the sport of wrestling, USA Wrestling can provide benefits like Terry's appearance as another way to strengthen the sport of wrestling nationwide."      Each stop on the Tour will have a local person for wrestling enthusiasts to contact for more information.  Signing up for the new USA Wrestling Membership gives members the chance to participate in the Brands clinic and the membership is activated for the entire upcoming season.  Registration for the new card will begin one hour prior to the clinic start time.  To attend the Brands Tour, all participants must purchase the 2001-2002 USAW Membership Card.      The Tour program will include the Brands clinic, video of Brands' matches, autograph and fan photo signings, information on the World Championships in New York City the following week, and the most current USA Wrestling merchandise.      With Brands making stops in so many states in the mid-Atlantic region many state leaders are excited about the tour coming to their area.  David Thomas, Head Coach at Dover High School and the point of contact for the Delaware stop, is one of many wrestling fans looking forward to Brands' visit to Delaware. "This event will be great because of the high profile of Terry Brands and the dedication of Delaware to USA Wrestling to encourage more wrestling participation at the national level.  We need to have clinics like this in Delaware to let the student-athletes know that the national level is not out of reach for wrestlers from small states."      Kennon Engleman, point of contact for the Glens Falls stop, is equally enthusiastic about Brands' visit to New York.  "If you're a fan of the sport of wrestling, then you know of the toughness that is associated with the Brands name.  To be able to attend a clinic with a World Champion like Terry Brands for the low cost of a USA Wrestling membership is an awesome deal for wrestlers in New York."      USA Wrestling invites wrestling enthusiasts from the five states involved to attend the Terry Brands Tour and join the ranks of amateur wrestling as a USA Wrestling member.
