Collegiate Wrestling Moves - Take-downs

Take-downs

A take-down is a wrestling move used to go from a neutral standing position to an up position with your opponent in a down position and thus score two take-down points.

Some basic takedowns are...

double leg, single leg, high crotch, duck under, standing switch, stuff the head, head lock, front head lock, (after stuffing the head to the mat)

These moves are usually taught at a young age through high school. Most are simple and very effective if done right.
