Wrestling at the Gay Games

 
WWB at the Gay Games


Wrestling is the only sport that has been officially sanctioned in every Gay Games since their inception in 1982. The steps toward organizing Wrestlers WithOut Borders grew out of dissatisfaction with the planning of Gay Games III in Vancouver.

WWB joined the Federation of the Gay Games and has been directly involved with the FGG, the host organization and the host clubs in every games starting with Gay Games IV in New York City in 1994. In that year, the Gay Games offered women's wrestling competition for the first time — 10 years before the Olympics.

In 2006, many wrestlers sat out the competition in the wake of Montreal's split from the Gay Games, but 100 wrestlers still competed in Chicago. Gay Games VIII in Cologne drew just 40 wrestlers, the smallest tournament in Gay Games history.

Gay Games IX is scheduled for Cleveland in 2014.
