Third Referee Quiz Now Available

By United World Wrestling Press

CORSIER-SUR-VEVEY, Switzerland (June 30, 2020) -- United World Wrestling is pleased to announce the release of the third referee quiz. The third referee quiz can be found here

The quiz consists of 20 action sequences taken from UWW match footage and asks participants, "How many points should be scored?" Participants are asked to select from one of four options for each sequence. 

For fans, it provides an opportunity to view the sport from the perspective of those who have to call the action in real time. For referees, it's a powerful learning tool. For both it's a chance to compete, as the game logs the scores of players in real time and places their effort against that of all other participants.
