    IIS United World Wrestling: Olympic gold medallist and Canadian wrestling legend, Erica Wiebe, is set to conduct a camp for female Indian wrestlers at the Inspire Institute of Sport (IIS) in Vijayanagar this month as part of the second edition of the IIS Excellence Accelerator.

    The Masterclass, a first-of-its-kind, aims to bring world-class expertise to the IIS United World Wrestling (UWW) International Women’s Wrestling Camp and follows the inaugural edition, held with Georgian Judo legend Lasha Shavdatuashvili.

    Wiebe had an unbelievably incredible 2014 season where she won every single tournament she competed in, creating a winning streak of 36 matches. She went on to win gold at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in the 75kg Freestyle category and followed it up with another gold in 2018. In the summer of 2016, she won the coveted gold at the Rio Olympics. Following her triumph in Rio, she was part of the inaugural edition of the Indian Pro Wrestling League as captain of the Mumbai Maharathi.
