| Description Wrestling is an ancient individual combat sport fought between two wrestlers. Each competitor attempts to throw the other to the mat, and 'pin' their shoulders to the ground to register a 'fall'. There are several distinctions in rules between the two major international styles of wrestling: Greco-Roman and Freestyle. Wrestlers will be competing in the three Olympic wrestling styles during the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games: Greco-Roman, Men's Freestyle and Women's Freestyle. In Greco-Roman wrestling, the wrestler is forbidden to grasp the opponent below the waist, or to use the leg to trip or actively perform any action. In Men's And Women's Freestyle wrestling, however, it is permissible to grasp the legs, or to use the leg to trip or actively perform any action. >> Venue
