Wrestling

Wrestling is a combat sport involving two competitors who try to gain control over each other through various grappling techniques, including throws, takedowns, pins, and holds. The primary goal is to outmaneuver the opponent, either by pinning them to the mat, scoring points through takedowns and reversals, or forcing them to submit. Wrestling can occur in various styles, including amateur wrestling (such as freestyle and Greco-Roman), professional wrestling, and folk wrestling, each with its own set of rules and objectives. It is both an individual sport and can be team-oriented, with competitions often held in a ring or on a mat. Wrestling has historical roots in many cultures and is also a recognized Olympic sport, emphasizing physical strength, agility, strategy, and technique.
