Freestyle wrestling is a style of amateur wrestling that is practiced
throughout the world. Along with Greco-Roman, it is one of the two
styles of wrestling contested in the Olympic games. It is, along with
track and field, one of the oldest organized sports in history.
American high school and college wrestling is conducted under different
rules and is termed scholastic and collegiate wrestling.
Freestyle wrestling, like its American counterpart, collegiate
wrestling, has its greatest origins in catch-as-catch-can wrestling
and, in both styles, the ultimate goal is to pin your opponent to the
mat, which results in an immediate win. Freestyle and collegiate
wrestling, unlike Greco-Roman, also both allow the use of the
wrestler's or his opponent's legs in offense and defense.
According to the International Federation of Associated Wrestling
Styles (FILA), freestyle wrestling is one of the four main forms of
amateur competitive wrestling that are practiced internationally
today. Others of the main forms of wrestling are Greco-Roman and
Grappling (also called submission wrestling).
