Wrestling is a sporting discipline and a combat sport. There are a very large number of varieties, but three main ones can be distinguished: freestyle wrestling (LL), Greco-Roman wrestling (GR) and women's wrestling (LF). Wrestling is a system of unarmed combat in which opponents compete hand-to-hand on a mat without grabbing the opponent's outfit (as in no-gi but unlike judo or the "gi" oppositions of Brazilian jiu-jitsu and grappling). The objective is to win the fight either by making the opponent fall to the ground and keeping both shoulders glued to the mat: this is the pin; or by winning on points. However, there are special rules for different styles. Not to be confused with wrestling, also known as "professional wrestling" or simply "wrestling" in Quebec and New Brunswick.
