In the darkest of days for the Williams family, some people shined their brightest. This video highlights some of those individuals and how they showed up and made an impact during a difficult time.

We want to normalize hard conversations with not just coaches, parents, and teachers but also peer-to-peer. You can become part of this change through one or more of the actions below:

  1. PLEDGE - to be there for others and spread the word

  2. DONATE or SHOP - providing resources to further our cause

  3. VOLUNTEER - we can’t do it without you!

NORMALIZing Conversations on mental health

Life is hard. Life is harder when we don’t practice putting ourselves in hard situations. I love this description of how our mind works…how the daily grind you all put yourself through sets you up for greater things in your future! Let’s get uncomfortable. #notalwayseasy #grind #overcoming #pushingtothelimit #endurance #mentalgame #mentalhealthawareness #persistence #combatforconnection
What an amazing sight! We were given the opportunity to share merchandise with this group of ladies out of @combat_athletics. So many existing pledgers in this picture! What most people do not know is the behind the scenes of this picture. Credit mu
What an amazing sight! We were given the opportunity to share merchandise with this group of ladies out of @combat_athletics. So many existing pledgers in this picture! What most people do not know is the behind the scenes of this picture. Credit must be given to Martina Yang who made this all possible! Last year a vision came to her mind and she made it happen. Between this vision and the amazing catch phrase of her daughter Haley, we took the plunge and obtained our nonprofit status. We couldn’t let them down, especially with all the support their family has given ours. We say this to remind everyone that everything you do impacts someone else! You make a difference!!! “Nothing is impossible, because I am possible.” We love you @haleythao_w4l !!!

Lake Norman Wrestling Club is excited to announce it’s time to register! Check out the new dates and hours. Don’t worry if you are new to the sport… shoes to borrow in all sizes! All practices will be held in the field house just past the football field. #combatforconnection #wildcats #wrestling #clubpractice #collaboration #readytotrain #wrestlingclub
We were able to drop in on one of @lakenormanwrestlingclub many clinics they have been offering. Getting exposure to college level coaching is quite the opportunity! A big thank you to @randolph_womenswrestling for allowing the girls to learn from @brichards.06. #combatforconnection #wrestling #ladieswresting #opportunity #collaboration #randolphwrestling #virginia
War of the Roses is the highlight for these ladies this weekend. We wish them and the rest of team Combat Athletics the best. Such an amazing problem to have for lady wrestlers this weekend. “Where do I compete this weekend?” “Do I go to a free camp in Mooresville by @randolph_womenswrestling ?” “Do I go to the tournament ran by @combat_athletics in Bermuda Run?” How far the sport has come to give these ladies choices!!!!! #combatforconnection #mentalhealthawareness #wrestling #community #womenwrestling #opportunities #connection #growing #evolve #
