Definition:
Amateur wrestling is the most widespread form of sport
wrestling.
There are two international wrestling styles performed
in the
Olympic Games
under the supervision of
FILA (Fédération
Internationale des Luttes Associées or International
Federation of
Associated Wrestling Styles):
Freestyle and
Greco-Roman.
Freestyle is possibly derived from the English
Lancashire
style. A similar
style, commonly called
Collegiate,
Folkstyle, or Scholastic, is practiced in secondary schools,
colleges, and younger age groups in
the United States. Where the style is not specified, this
article refers to the international styles.
