I want to start this society because of my passion for the sport, having come 3rd in the souther regionals and qualified for the nationals, I love wrestling with every bone in my body, but I was dissapointed to find there was nothing to facilitate wrestling at leeds, so I joined BJJ society and considered joining Judo, since they're both grappling sports that have aspects of wrestling.
I think wrestling teaches one lots about life, as Marcus Aurelius once said “Life is more like wrestling than dancing, in that it stands ready against the accidental and the unforeseen, and is not apt to fall.”
And its also one of the most effective forms of self defence, shown by the absolutely dominating number of UFC champions that are ex-wrestlers.
Wrestling creates a bond with teammates that is unlike any other sport, and is listed as one of the hardest sports in the world due to its physical demands.
I believe that this would be popular with the other grappling sports, and other combat sports at the university.
