IOC confirms wrestling's qualification process

The International Olympic Committee Executive Committee has approved the Wrestling Qualification System for the upcoming Olympic Games in Japan.

The main principles and rules will remain the same. As mentioned earlier to all the National Wrestling Federations, Morocco, Hungary, and China will keep the organization of the Continental Qualifiers and Bulgaria will organize the World Qualification.

The main change in that document is the eligibility to attend the Olympic Games. The athletes who will turn 18 years old (2003) in 2021 will be allowed to compete in the Qualifiers and in the Olympic Games.
