Wrestling

Wrestling is one of the world’s oldest sports, dating back over 5,000 years to ancient civilizations such as Mesopotamia and Egypt.

In Freestyle Wrestling, leg attacks are allowed and wrestlers often adopt a lower, more defensive stance to counter this. Freestyle is also known for its fluidity and emphasis on transitions between various techniques.

In Greco-Roman, Wrestlers cannot grab, hold or use the legs and there are strict penalties for movements that break these rules. Instead, this style relies heavily on upper-body power and arm strength, with wrestlers typically adopting an upright position.

In both disciplines, wrestlers must pin the opponent or score more points to win a match.
