The German Wrestling Championships, a major event in the German sporting calendar, take place next weekend. The championships will be held for the first time this year in the Untermainhalle in Elsenfeld and promise exciting competitions in 30 weight classes in both freestyle and Greco-Roman style.
Over 140 athletes from all over the country are expected to compete for the coveted titles in the two styles. The participants range from young talents to experienced wrestlers who have already enjoyed international success. Among the favorites are several national team members who have already won medals at European and World Championships. The German Championships are also an important test for the DRB’s Olympic starters this year.
The event will take place over three days and offers spectators the opportunity to experience top-class wrestling live. The preliminary fights begin on Friday, followed by the semi-finals and finals on Saturday and Sunday, where the new German champions will be crowned.
In addition to the exciting competitions, the supporting program offers visitors additional attractions. So every visitor can step on a wrestling mat for themselves. As a partner of the DRB, Foeldeak not only provides the black, red and gold competition mats, which this year have an octagon format, but also a demonstration mat, which will be set up in the foyer.
The German Wrestling Championships are not only an important highlight in the competition calendar for the athletes, but also an opportunity for the wrestling community and sports fans to come together and share their passion for this sport steeped in tradition. Everyone involved is looking forward to a sporting weekend full of top performances and fair competitions.
