2.2.11 Wrestling |
---|
Of all the sports blind and visually impaired athletes compete in, wrestling is considered by many to be the easiest to modify. In fact, there is only one basic adaptation needed for blind wrestlers to compete against sighted opponents. During competition, the two competitors must maintain constant contact when in the standing position. This is done by touching fingertips; one hand up and one hand down. If contact is broken, the match is stopped and the wrestlers "touch up" and start again. |
