Bahram Afsharzadeh, member of the Executive Board of the Islamic Countries Solidarity Games And the senior consultant in the executive affairs of the World Wrestling and Wrestling Federation said: fruitful and important steps have been taken for the presence of wrestling among the disciplines approved by the IOC.

Bahram Afsharzadeh, in a conversation with the public relations of the World Federation of Wrestling and Wrestling, referring to the arrangements made for the proper organization of wrestling competitions, said: I must first thank the organizing committee of this round of games, who made all the efforts. They used them to better organize Zorkhaneh matches. For the first time, Zorkhaneh competitions were included in the association games and it was necessary to have a written program and statutes for its regular and precise organization. This was achieved with the efforts and cooperation of the organizing committee and the world federation, which was definitely considered a unique event.

Member of the Executive Board of the Islamic Countries Association Games  Regarding the high level of this course of competitions, he added: I think it is a good time for the IOC to visit the powerlifting and wrestling competitions in order to witness the growth and effectiveness of this discipline. Of course, the Olympic Council has special conditions for the acceptance of sports disciplines and tournaments, but my personal opinion is that due to the high quality of these competitions, the conditions for the participation of this discipline among the disciplines approved by the IOC are ready.
