Women's Greco Roman Wrestling
With FILA understanding the need of equal number of medals for men and women an effort to study whether there is enough interest and competitors in women's Greco Roman wrestling is underway. In that regard I am starting this thread to see we can get enough evidence of women participating in Greco Roman Wrestling.
But it is a heartening to see that the debate has shifted from whether women can fight Greco Roman to if there is interest in Greco Roman wrestling among women. The interest and participation can only come if state and national associations and ultimately FILA organises women's tournament in Greco Roman Style. So here is photo evidence of two women wrestlers Tatiana Padilla and Michelle Jimeniz participating in 130 lbs and 105 lbs class of California State Championship in 2006. Any pics and videos would be highly appreciated |

Re: Women's Greco Roman Wrestling
Finding women's greco roman pics are rare. In Greco Roman holds below waist is not allowed. We have pic threads for mixed freestyle wrestling too you can post ur pics there

Re: Women's Greco Roman Wrestling
Some people think Greco should be eliminated to provide weight classes for women. But it's popular
in Scandinavia, so we'll see |

Re: Women's Greco Roman Wrestling
I think if opportunities to wrestle Greco were there, the women would do it.
However Greco is not popular in the US to begin with, and the federations seem not to want to expand the number of weight categories or styles. That's the problem. |
