tskin Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Just out of curiousity how many would attend a Beach Wrestling State Championship? I am working with the ISWA on making this happen this year at Madison Indiana during our annual Madison Regatta on the river front on July 4th weekend. I had a meeting with the regatta and they are on board. I want to hear everyone in the high school community thoughts on this style of wrestling.

MattM Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Don't they already have unofficial beach wrestling at the Regatta yearly? Sounds interesting, but I would assume most people in Indiana would need to be educated on the rules of Beach Wrestling compared to the other styles.
