Discussion Topic: Technique Tuesday... but a little early.
Mark Niemann added to this discussion on March 27, 2010

I went to a little 2 hour clinic today, hosted by Johnstown High School, featuring Brian Dolph. It's was pretty much sweet.

Anywho, I was permitted to tape and youtube the technique so here is one of the clips...

The Inside Trip:

Discussion Topic: Technique Tuesday... but a little early.
Mark Niemann added to this discussion on March 27, 2010

I posted this about the entre day...

Uhh, yeah... He's pretty sweet.

Coach Dolph used a systematic approach to communicate his techniques and it was rather effective. I've been to some 2 hour clinics and sometimes week long camps that only show moves. No tie-in or continuity whatsoever. Having seen (and done) both, I am a fan of the systematic stuff. Downfall: It takes discipline and time. Upswing: Once the idea or philosophy of a systematic approach is learned, IMO, it becomes easier to recognize and execute a different system.

Coach Dolph started with his 4 fundamentals

1) Head up
2) Back straight
3) Hips in
4) Working into your opponent

to show a quick duck under, all in an attempt to loosen the guys up. After that he started with a double leg, complete getting the angle, level change and shooting up and in to the opponent. Once in on a double, remember the 4 fundamentals.

From there he went right into a high crotch... basically, everything was the same, except you only grab one leg. (Just making sure you're tracking, knightflyer. )

In true systematic form, he let the oppoent shut his double and high crotch down, which in turn, opened up a single leg. And oh, did it ever. I'm not exaclty a fan of his style of single but it is an option that might suit some of my wrestlers. Glad I know the option now.

After that he showed and elbow pass to all three.

At the very end, he showed it... The Inside Dolph. I mean trip! Inside Trip. It was backwards from what I am used to seeing btu it certainly is effective.

In the end, I'm glad I went and I did receive permission to air his stuff so as soon as I upload and edit it, I'll have it up. I think I'll start with the inside trip.

Thanks again to the Johnstown folks. See you 'round.

Not a problem at all, Lou.

I think I'm going to put up 2 or 3 more bits. One of them you'll love... he gives the boy MAD props! (psst... it means he gives Josh a compliment.)

During a clinic at Johnstown High School, Coach Dolph gave some insights to the high crotch.

Here it is...
