According to the Secretary General of Pro-Wrestling Africa (PWA), Olusesan Olukoya, the training which will be handled by renowned world wrestler/ Dentist, “Golden Boy” Jim McDowell and Damien Wayne Kostyal is aimed at equipping athletes from the West Coast of Africa with the most modern techniques of the mats man game as well as make the game have a foothold in West African sub-region.

The timely training is the first of its kind in West Africa and the good thing is that it will be handled by two world-renowned Champions and wrestlers of appreciable repute from the USA coming to instil Championship skills into African athletes.

“I’m optimistic that at the end of the three-day training, both old and new wrestlers will be well-equipped to make an impact in the sport. This is a great program to make new friends while achieving physical fitness, building confidence while also establishing leadership qualities, and learning the value of teamwork. Many of our participants would grow by leaps and bounds as performers in the ring and would end up becoming world champions with time” explained the ‘’Golden Boy’’ Dr. Jim McDowell.
