CORSIER-SUR-VEVEY, Switzerland (January 29) -- The United World Wrestling Sport Department, in collaboration with Megaphone Live, has created a comprehensive guide for those looking to organize wrestling events.  

Over the past several years, as the professionalization of the international wrestling has increased and viewership boomed, stakeholders and organizers have requested consistent and clear guidelines for the Field of Play. The updated handbook is packaged to easily identify the location of everything from scoreboards, to furniture, and positions for television. The documents also provide you the exact measurements for items such as the award podium, tables for the technical delegate, and the boxes used by coaching staffs. 

“We are very proud to offer this new tool to all our National Wrestling Federations but also to every Wrestling Organizer. With such precise documents, the preparation of the event will be managed smoothly, and the respect of our requirements will be easier to follow,” said UWW Sport Director Jean-Daniel REY. 

Readers interested in the details of the plans can access them, for free, here. (You will need a ‘Sketchup’ viewer to access the 3D model.) 

“We have invested heavily in Wrestling’s sport presentation over the past six years and a fundamental part are details around the field of play and venue layouts,” said United World Wrestling president Nenad LALOVIC. “These documents are integral for us to deliver competitions seamlessly and we wanted to make this available to all our member federations. As UWW improves, the whole wrestling community should benefit.”

12:20: Ali HAJIVAND (IRI) and Murad MAMMADOV (AZE) took a long time to finish their 63kg bout and it is the Iranian who comes out on top 6-3. Mammadov took a 3-0 lead in the first period. But, Hajivand got the par terre in the second and Mammadov committed a defensive foul which gave a 3-3 criteria lead to Hajivand. He then hit a correct throw to make it 5-3. Hajivand then almost got Mammadov in a fall but did not complete it but his lead swelled to 7-3. Mammadov challanged that asking for leg foul but lost it which gave Hajivand the additional one point.

12:00: Zagreb Open champion Diego CHKHIKVADZE (GEO) with first-period victory over Erzu ZAKRIEV (UWW) 67kg. Chkhikvadze hits an opening four-pointer and then gets a pushout which was actually a throw but Zakriev did not land in danger. Zakriev challenges for two points for himself but challenge is lost. A two-point takedown and stepout gives Chkhikvadze the 9-1 win
