The competition was awesome, even though this was only a trial competition. The wrestlers invested enormous amount of energy made an incredible show for the 100 unexpected fans happen to be walking on the Boardwalk and stopped to see what was going on..

 
first wrestler is down, hard fall on the sand. beach wrestling is not for everybody

The beautiful sand on the Long Beach, Long island helped to reduce the impact of being thrown and the best part the officials have no problem determining if it was a pin or not. They simply asked the wrestlers to stand up and check his back. If there is sand on the shoulder blades, they were pinned. Great no arguments and we maybe on to something if we can figure a way to wrestle without officials.

Wrestling is wrestling whether it is on a mat, in a ring or even on sand. Beach Wrestling is an example of bringing a product to the consumers. In this case, we have the wrestlers and athletes and all we need is more fans to move our sport to the mainstream of athletics.


Wrestling is magic for KIDS!!!


It teaches life long skills, builds self-esteem while providing an activity that is challenging, competitive as any and physically demanding than most.
