(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Wrestball is a high-energy, full-contact sport that combines elements of basketball and wrestling. Each play starts with a one-on-one clash for ball control, then shifts into a team phase with throws, passes, and scoring at the hoop. There's no dribbling - just movement, power, and strategy. Likewise basketball, the objective is to score by throwing the ball through a hoop. However, unlike basketball, wrestling moves are permitted when battling for possession. Points are awarded for successful shots and for executing wrestling techniques during gameplay. The game can be played in two different formats: a 5-on-5 full court game or a 3-on-3 half court version.

Honore Magon, President of the International Wrestball League (IWL), co-founder of wrestball, emphasized stated, "Wrestball is physical, entertaining, and made to be watched. With more than 300 million views across the internet, Wrestball's popularity is still expanding globally."
