The University of Calgary will play host to the 2008 and 2009 Canadian Interuniversity Sport men’s and women’s wrestling championships. This is the first time since 1995 that Calgary has played host to the event, and the first time ever that it will play host to the women’s portion, which didn’t become recognized as a CIS sport until 1999.
CIS wrestling showcases amateur stars and feeds directly to the national team.
The steel cage and mud-wrestling championship dates have yet to be announced.
