Yes that is very ture, because in MS and HS wrestling we can shoot in and grab the legs for a takedown. I think its called folk wrestling, but I'm not sure.

I do know about freestlye wrestling now, but I don't think thats what its called. My brother told me it was folk, but still not so sure. Its ok if no one knows. I just wanted to see if anyone could comferm that it was called folk wrestling.

Way back in the day, we called it folk wrestling.

 

In Greco-Roman, there's nothing below the belt. So no shooting the legs for a takedown. IIRC, in freestyle, getting the feet above the head is worth 5 points. The hip throw, crotch lift, and suplex demonstrate control over your opponent, and they all gain you serious points. In Indiana High School Athletic Association wrestling, taking your opponent's feet above his head is considered dangerous and it is an instant disqualification.
