About Our Club
The USA Mat Club is located at 623 E. 19th St. Cedar Falls, Iowa.
Established in 2006, our mission is to facilitate the success of wrestlers.
We are dedicated to enhancing the wrestling abilities of young men and women, fostering the virtues of diligence and perseverance within a supportive family environment.
We do not believe in shortcuts. Hard work and dedication are the foundations of this sport and the reason, we believe, everyone can benefit from being a wrestler.
Our Mission + Goal
Promoting, supporting, and developing amateur wrestling, fostering the ideal of sportsmanship through training, participation, competition, and fellowship.
Our wrestling program was designed for the youth level (grades K – High-school). At USA Mat Club we aim to build character, discipline, and teach our athletes to set and achieve goals in life – on and off the mat.
Our goal is to develop champions on the mat and in life through a structured program based upon values, commitment, healthy habits, and skills development.
We will emphasize the fundamentals of wrestling to include basic skills, drills and techniques in a fun and positive manner. Our athletes will gain knowledge of wrestling + be a part of a family-like atmosphere + team.

Brett Stedman - coach
Wrestling Accomplishments: 3X state place winner: 3rd , 2nd , 5th . Four-year
letter winner for the University of Iowa. Coaches’ appreciation award at Iowa.
Coaching Experience: Coaching with the USA Mat Club for the last 6 years. Also, have coached my boys in baseball the last 3 years.
What you love about coaching: I enjoy getting kids excited about the sport we’re in and seeing the growth over time. I truly believe, if you can get a kid excited about something, they begin to believe in themselves, which then builds their confidence and takes them to a completely different level.
Michael kelly - coach
Wrestling Accomplishments: 2x Iowa High School State Champion, 4th Place at Iowa High School State Tournament, 4 year starter at the University of Iowa, 2x National Qualifier, multiple time All Freestyle, Fargo All American, multiple time Freestyle and Greco state champ, and multiple time Freestyle and Greco Regional Champion.
Coaching Experience: I have coached both at The USA Mat Club and at the high school level in years past – coaching all three styles – folkstyle freestyle and greco.
What you love about coaching: I enjoy watching the kids grow and get better on and off of the mat. I also enjoy watching the kids enjoy the sport and have fun with their teammates.
