Full-time paramedic, part-time wresting coach Jeff Tucker has big plans for the future of the wrestling business in LaGrange. On Thursday, Aug. 15 Tucker plans to open a Professional Wrestling Academy to teach those ages 10 and up how to participate in fun, family-friendly, community wrestling.
Tucker plans to give wrestling a family-friendly atmosphere. The goal of the program is to expose those in the community to a new hobby that many have not tried before, while also training those interested in the art of wrestling.
“I want to give folks a family-friendly version of wrestling,” Tucker said. “We’re a Christian-based organization, and we just want folks to have a good time and try something new.”
