  3. 0 Preliminary remarks It has already become a good tradition to analyse the top event of the year on the occasion of the international coaches clinic and to draw conclusions for the next period of training. In this process the Olympic Games play an outstanding role and they have an extraordinary importance in the lives of the athletes. However, this does not only apply to the actors on the mats, but also to coaches, referees, officials, and spectators. The results of the Olympic Games reflect the work completed during one Olympic cycle, and an elaborate analysis furnishes the material for the training-methodical work during the next Olympic cycle.

  4. In the following performance and development of performance in freestyle wrestling shall be outlined, and attention shall be directed on progresses and deficiencies. In order to support in-depth analyses by coaches and athletes we place at your disposal videos with the best technical actions at the Olympic Games, a new edition of the DVD-ROM “Fascination Wrestling-special Olympic Edition” with the updated database and individual video sequences of the Olympic Games 1988 until 2008 as well as a DVD with highlights of the Beijing Olympic Games.

  5. 1. International tendencies of the development of performance in wrestling As Mr. Jacques Rogge, the president of the IOC, closed the Olympic Games in Beijing with the words “These were truly exceptional Games!” the whole wrestling family could also be full of praise for the perfect organisation of the Chinese hosts. The Chinese responsible persons for our sport, the spectators and the nice volunteers especially made the Olympic Games to an unforgettable event for us. So we can support with all one's heart Mr. Rogge’s conclusion: “Through these Games, the world learned more about China, and China learned more about the world.” Athletes from 204 National Olympic Committees came to these dazzling venues and particularly the athletes from Great Britain made great increases in efficiency .

  6. In Wrestling 60 countries took part in the Olympic Summer Games and the 71 medals have been won by 28 countries. The most three successful countries in Wrestling have been in Beijing Russia, Japan and Georgia while Georgia made the biggest leap since Athens.

  7. Again the Russian Freestyle wrestlers were the best in Beijing. They were with almost double of Nation points in front followed by Ukraine and Uzbekistan.

  8. 2. Analysis of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games We have an increase of the points per minute from 0.9 in Sydney to 1.0 in Athens and again from Athens to Beijing after rule changing even the increase is not dramatically.

  9. The tendency of increase of the Freestyle wrestling discipline becomes also clear if we have a look at the quality of points of all participants (fig 2).

  10. 2.1 State of performance and development of freestyle wrestling We welcome Bouvaissa Saitiev in the Club of three time Olympic champions in wrestling. After winning the first Olympic Gold medal in Atlanta 1996 and a “creative” break in Sydney he has demonstrated his excellent technico-tactical performance in Athens and in Beijing winning again the gold medal.

  12. However, the excellent performances of other Olympic champions and medal winner like Taimazov (Uzbekistan), Mindorashwili (Georgia) or Shahin (Turkey) gave the spectators in Beijing pleasure.

  13. 66 kg TUR - CUB

  14. 74 kg CUB - BUL

  15. 2.1.1 Country-specific aspects We mentioned already the outstanding results of the Russian Freestyle wrestlers. Congratulation to the athletes, coaches and the Olympic Centre in Machatschkala with its leader, Juri Shakmouradov, were the most of the Olympic medal winner had been prepared.

  16. This leads us to a comparison of the nations’ performance from Athens and Beijing.

  17. Almost all the teams placed 10 to 20 could improve their results with only one exception, Iran. They also had to suffer big losses.

  18. 2.1.2 Qualitative analysis of combat behaviour 2.1.2.1 Combat behaviour of the nations With the Performance index you can very good describe the technical-tactical abilities of a given nation or athlete. In this case the realized points will be set into relation to the points given away to the opponent.

  19. The next figure shows the way to improve their wrestling efficacy of the USA, Cuba and Turkey. These countries gave more points away to their opponents as they made by themselves.

  20. The increase and decrease of the Wrestling efficacy since 2004 can be a hint to the quality of the national training concepts.

  21. If we take a deeper look into the quality we can see right now the reasons for the technical-tactical advantages and disadvantages of the various nations.

  22. The comparison of the attacking efficacy between 2004 and 2008 underlines this position.

  23. 66 kg UKR - USA

  24. 66 kg CUB - IRI

  25. On the other hand there must be another winning factor if the Russian wrestlers could have such a great success. And this becomes clear if we are looking at the defence abilities.

  26. Very interesting is the comparison of the defence abilities of the Olympic Games 2004 and 2008.

  27. On the other hand this is a good sign for the increase of the attractiveness of the Olympic Freestyle tournament 2008 in connection with the increase of the attack efficacy. This tendency can be confirmed with the summarizing of the Wrestling efficacy 2008 in Beijing.

  28. 2.1.2.2 Combat behaviour of the winner We consider a different picture concerning the performance index, which describes the technical-tactical abilities of the winner.

  29. 66 kg TUR - GEO

  30. If we compare the technical-tactical performance of the Olympic Champions 2004 and 2008 we can consider that the Olympic Champions in the 74kg (Saitiev) and in the 84kg ( Mindorashwili) showed a much better performance as the Champions 2004.

  31. If we have a look at the attack efficacy the dominating role of the Olympic Champions becomes evident with the exception of the 96 and 60kg Champion.

  32. The dominating offensive strategies of the Olympic Champions 2008 and the increase of the attractive Freestyle Wrestling versus 2004 becomes clear if we have look at the Attack efficacy 2008 and 2004.

  33. 55 kg USA - JPN

  34. In contrast to the excellent attack efficacy of Cejudo (USA) are his weak defence abilities. In general the Olympic Champions of 2008 are very stable against the attacks of their opponents. This is the case especially for Batirov, Saitiev, Muradov and Taimazov.

  35. All Olympic Champions of Athens have had better defence qualities than the Olympic Champions of 2008. This confirms on the other hand our observation of the increasing of the spectacular offensive strategies during the Olympic Games 2008 in Beijing.

  36. Summarizing the wrestling efficacy, all Freestyle Olympic champions have realized excellent performances with Bouvaissa Saitiev (RUS), Arthur Taimazov (UZB) and Revaz Mindorashwili (GEO) being clearly ahead.

  37. Technical-tactical Highlights on a basis of video clips • We have analyzed all individual Olympic bouts and we have found out many attractive technical-tactical actions, which have been compiled in the Highlights on video and DVD. In the following we will show some selected examples (video sequences freestyle).
