Practical Medical Guide for Wrestling Competitions: Local, Regional or Youth Competitions

, , , , &
 

ABSTRACT

Health regulations regarding wrestling competitions are strictly defined and described by the International Federation of Associated Wrestling Styles. There are well prepared medical instructors, doctors and health providers both for the FILA (International Federation of Associated Wrestling Styles) and for the National Federations present at adult international competitions. However, many competitions for younger ages or those held by local authorities supported by national federations are supervised by local medical doctors or ambulatory services inexperienced in wrestling. Every country has its own regulation for sport competitions but we lack a general practical guide for physicians or health care providers that could help these professionals to become familiar with wrestling.
