In preparing young wrestlers (16-17 years of age) the design often follows a relatively well-developed system of training for adult masters of sport. In general, the youthful body is characterized by a high intensity cardio-respiratory and blood systems during physical stress. So far, no data on the impact of intense competitive activity on the dynamics of individual aspects of preparedness of young wrestlers is available. Our objective was to study the impact of competitive activity on the functional training state in young wrestlers. Keywords: Competitions, Rules, Female Wrestling, Factor Analysis, Technique Wrestlers, training, weight management. INTRODUCTION Wrestling is unique among athletics. It is considered to be one of the most physically demanding sports among high school and college athletics. Wrestling was one of the most favored events in the Olympic Games in Ancient Greece. The first organized national wrestling tournament took place in New York City in 1888. From the Athens Games in 1896, until today, the wrestling events are also an important part of the modern Olympic Games. The International Federation of Associated Wrestling Styles (FILA) originated in 1912 in Antwerp, Belgium. The 1st NCAA Wrestling Championships were also held in 1912, in Ames, Iowa. USA Wrestling, located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, became the national governing body of amateur wrestling in 1983.

Fukuda, Ph.D. ABSTRACT The purpose of this examination was to evaluate relative age effects among junior elite wrestlers across gender, weight class, and competitive rule sets. Using biographical data, this thesis explores trends representing an oversampling of athletes born earlier in the year, accompanied by potential effects for success in sport and an impact on retention rates. Currently, the use of chronological age is the most common form of classifying sports participants, though this type of classification may have potentially negative long- and short-term implications.

  • Women's Freestyle

    Women's Freestyle

    Women’s Freestyle This article was written by a Soviet journalist in 2002. Free-style wrestling or Olympic wrestling (with regard to women it's sometimes called just as "women wrestling", "female wrestling", "college wrestling" - form of combative sports where each participant attempts to throw his/her opponent down and to pin him/her to the mat using an established set of techniques. This position is called "pin". The both, arms and legs are involved in free-style wrestling - it's the principal distinction from Greco-Roman (classic) wrestling where only arms are involved. In free-style wrestling scores are counted for each successfully accomplished technique and in no pin situation a victory (or draw) is announced according to the score rate. Although some female wrestling competitions are organized according Greco-Roman rules this form hasn't been spread among women (because it supposes strong shoulder and belly muscles as well as high strength of arms) and, after all, has been deprived of the Olympic status as a male only sport. The modification of freestyle wrestling - "folkstyle wrestling" is wide spread in American high schools and colleges. In this form a control and domination during a match affects the final decision as well as the regular factors. In contrast to oriental martial arts, the ritual (non-martial) wrestling formed the basis of free-style wrestling. That's why a conventional position (pin) rather than submission is the indication of the victory in this competition. (Russian linguist Dal gave the following clear definition of wrestling: "Single combat without weapon, beating and blows").
