Olympic champion Erica Wiebe wants more women to wrestle

TDR Editor’s Notes ; Sounds great. More women, men, boys and girls should give wrestling a try as it would benefit them and our communities.

Olympic gold medallist Erica Wiebe is a busy woman. Fresh off her tour in India as captain of the Mumbai Maharathi team in the Pro Wrestling league, Wiebe is back helping the next generation of Canadian athletes achieve their goals. It’s real and it’s spectacular: Erica Wiebe stars in India’s flashy Pro Wrestling League Monday morning she surprised Etobicoke, Ont.,’s West Humber Collegiate Institute women’s wrestling team with some new equipment as part of the Playtex Play On Grant program. With this donation, Wiebe hopes to “empower girls to walk out there with confidence and to be fierce and never question who they are and what they want to do in life.” It was an easy decision for Wiebe to be involved in the event, as anything that encourages young women to stay involved in sport, especially wrestling, is very important to her.
