Greco-Roman wrestling Weight Classes



 Greco-Roman wrestling is divided into four categories: schoolboys, cadets, juniors, and seniors. Schoolboys (young men ages 14–15; or age 13 with a medical certificate and parental authorization) wrestle in 10 weight classes range from 29 to 85 kg.Cadets (young men ages 16–17; or age 15 with a medical certificate and parental authorization) wrestle in 10 weight classes range from 39 to 100 kg.[9] Juniors (young men ages 18 to 20; or age 17 with a medical diploma and parental authorization) wrestle in eight weight classes ranging from 46 to 120 kg.Seniors (men ages 20 and up) wrestle in seven weight classes ranging from 50 to 120 kg. For men, there is also a special category for some Greco-Roman competitions, "Veterans", for men ages 35 and older, presumably featuring the same weight classes as seniors. Also, all of the men's age categories and weight classes can be applied to freestyle wrestling. Wrestlers after weigh-in may only wrestle in their own weight class. Wrestlers in the senior age category may wrestle up a weight class except for the heavyweight dissection (which starts at a weight more than 96 kg for the men).dissimilar nations may have different weight classes and different age category for their levels of Greco-Roman opposition.
