What is beach wrestling
Short bouts, a sand circle, and nowhere to hide. Beach wrestling is fast, simple to follow, and the fastest-growing style in the sport.
The ring
A circle in the sand
Bouts happen inside a 7 meter ring on the sand. Step out, or get pushed out, and your opponent scores.
Bout length
One period, 3 minutes
No rounds, no breaks, and no ground wrestling. Everything happens on your feet. If nobody reaches 3 points, the higher score wins, and a tie goes to whoever scored last.
How you win
First to 3 points
A takedown or a push-out scores 1 point. Put your opponent's back to the sand during a takedown or throw and you score 3, which ends the bout on the spot.
Weight classes
Four classes per gender
Senior and U20 men wrestle at 70, 80, 90 and +90 kg. Women wrestle at 50, 60, 70 and +70 kg.
