Description
Wrestling at the Commonwealth Games is an optional sport for that was one of six to be featured on the Programme in Hamilton 1930. The sport was originally male only until women's events were added at the 2010 games. Wrestling was present at all editions of the games program until 1994. The sport was first removed from the program in 1998, when Malaysian organizers replaced it with 10-pin bowling, as the sport lacked popular appeal in the country and medal chances were also low, returning in 2002. In the following edition in 2006, it was again removed for the addition of basketball. The second return was in 2010, when in addition to freestyle wrestling, the Indian organizers chose to add Greco-Roman wrestling events. The sport was present in the 2014, 2018 and 2022 editions. It was announced in October 2024 that wrestling had not been chosen for the 2026 games.
