World Beach Games are on the Line in Final Qualifier
This story is from Gary Abbott at USA Wrestling– The final stop on the road to Bali for the 2023 ANOC World Beach Games is set for this weekend, and the stakes are high for the five U.S. athletes competing this weekend.
The USA will field a small but experienced team for the second United World Wrestling Beach World Series event of 2023, set for Singapore, June 10-11.
All five U.S. athletes competing in Singapore have wrestled in a number of Beach World Series events and are among those with world rankings at the Senior level in Beach Wrestling.
This is the fifth and final UWW Beach World Series event which is a qualifier for the 2023 World Beach Games in Bali, Indonesia. The first three of these qualifiers were held in 2022, with the fourth held in Argentina last month. From these five specific qualifiers, athletes from the top eight nations in each of the eight Beach World Series weight classes (four women’s weights, four men’s weights) qualify their nation to compete in the World Beach Games in Bali in August.
