USSR and Iran

invited to compete

By GRANT. KERR

VANCOUVER (CP) — The
Canadian Amateur Wrestling
Association has invited 98
countrios, including the Se
viet Union and Iran, to par-
ticipate in the 1981 world
amateur junior wrestling
championships.

The meet, sanctioned by
the’ International Wrestling
Association (FILA), will be
held July 11-18 at the Uni-
“versity of B.C. for men 17-20
years of age. . .

Russia and Iran are mem-
bers of FILA and all mem-
bers of the association must
be invited to the champion-
ships, meet organizers told a
cnews conference Feb, 20.

“Pm sure the Soviets will
-be here because they want to
show everyone, as always,
they are the best’ in the
world,” said Mario Saletnig,
president of the .CAWA.
“Invitations have been issued:
to all‘:members of FILA.” -

Organizers: expect 300 to
.400 wrestlers from at least 30
,ecountries to ‘compete in the
junior worlds in the freestyle
‘and Greco-Roman events cov-
ering 10 weight psoas

, from 48 kilograms to s
heavyweight ( Amore than ‘haa 00

that the Soviet team would”

be unwelcome in Canada,

The CAWA president said
he expects the 20-member
Canadian team to be domin-
ated by Ontario and 'B.C.
wrestlers because of the
compatitive level of the sport
in those provinces.

“This is a most important
event because it is a stepping
stone to the 1982 world
senlor championships in Ed-
monton and the 1984 Olym-
pics in Los Angeles,” Salet-
nig said. “I'm optimistic
about the chances of our
wrestlers and hopefully we
will place three or four in.the
top six in some events.

“The junior worlds is ex--

tremely important to Cana-
dian wrestlers because we
didn't get an opportunity to
participate in the last Olym-
pics. Now we'll be able to
gauge our development.”

Canadians have won med-
als in previous junior world
competitions. The event is
held every: two years, as is
the world senior event.

Holding the juntor worlds
in Vancouver is a way to
“develop wrestling in British
Columbia through a. high
profile,” said Bill Mitchell, a
suburban. Coquitlam high

school teacher who is pres- ©
ident of the host B.C. Ama-:

teur Wrestling Association. -

“We hope to expand inte
est in our sport by hosting

such a prestizous event,”

said Mi
“There ae several out
standing young wrestlers in

B.C. and Canada who will -

benefit from this event.”

‘The Canadian team ‘will be’ «

selected at tho Canadian.

ahips March 20-21 at Saska-
toon, Sask.

“Wrestling is a growing
sport in Canada,”
chell.

championships are often an

important stepping stone for ©
the wup-and-coming wrest-

Jers.”
