History of Wrestling

Wrestling is one of the most diverse sports in the world with nearly 200 countries participating worldwide. Wrestling was presented during every modern Summer Olympics except in Paris 1900. Wrestling builds determination, zeal, perseverance, and Wrestlers are known for their hard work ethic.

Works of art from 3000bc depict belt wrestling in Babylonia and Egypt, and the Sumerian Gilgamesh epic has a description of wrestling in hand-to-hand combat, and as a sportive form of combat substituting the submission of a contestant for his death

Wrestling, which was always popular in ancient Greece, occupied a prominent place in the Olympic Games. It was developed by ancient Greeks as a way of training soldiers in hand-to-hand combat. After the Greeks were defeated, the Roman Empire borrowed from Greek wrestling, but eliminated much of the brutality.
