Competition Introduction

A sport where two athletes use techniques to pin each other down, competing for victory by pinning both shoulders to the mat (fall) or points scored when techniques succeed.

Basic Rules

Freestyle uses the entire body for offense and defense, unbalancing opponents with tackles.

Unique Aspects of Deaf Sports

The difference lies in communicating start, end, and match interruptions to athletes. Since these cannot be communicated by sound, visual methods such as gestures are used when turns come.
