Christchurch Olympic School
Purpose
Olympic-style wrestling, the oldest form of combat sport, originated over 4,000 years ago and has persevered through the ages. This captivating sport, deeply rooted in ancient times, has become an integral part of the Olympic Games, showcasing the strength, grace, and strategic prowess of its participants. Wrestling builds resilience, especially in children and youth, teaching them to stand up after every fall and never give up. It embodies a way of life that fosters perseverance, courage, and indomitable spirit, transcending mere athletic skill. By embracing these principles, wrestlers embark on a transformative journey of personal growth and character development. We are here to present the sport as an educational program to build up strong and resilient individuals who will take up the mantel of stewarding the future of society.
