The clinic was specific for the development for youth level wrestlers. Various clubs from the Greater Montreal area and beyond were in attendance. The clinic was a real treat for the young athletes in attendance.

Athletes from across the province, as well as out of town came to compete in the younger age groups, ranging from the Bantam age group and lower.
