The Wrestling Federation of Sri Lanka (WFSL) is hoping to obtain the services of four top coaches from Iran to train the National Wrestling Squad in their preparation for the South Asian Games (SAG) which will be staged in Kathmandu, Nepal in December. Of these four coaches, one will be a consultant coach while the other three would function as fitness trainers.
All four coaches are expected to arrive in the island in June or July. These coaches will be on a four-month contract basis but will continue to remain until the SAG, according to Chaminda Kumara Mallawarachchi, Secretary of the WFSL. Mallawarachchi also said that a National Pool of 45 wrestlers have been selected in preparation for the SAG.
