Larne Panthers receive Bronze Wrestling Skills Award

Published in the Larne Gazette

Three wrestlers from Larne Panthers Wrestling Club, Mathew Caldwell, Andrew Morton, and Roy Wilson received their well-earned Bronze Wrestling Skills Award on Saturday 15 September.

Wrestling Skills Awards are the Northern Ireland Olympic Wrestling Association's recognised grading system for Olympic Freestyle Wrestling. For students to gain an award they must study as well as train. The students demonstrate wrestling techniques, various fitness tests, and answer a series of questions.

These particular students are self-motivated, pushing themselves to gain this award in such a short period. Commended for their effort and dedication they have already set a goal to achieve the Silver wrestling Skills Award.
