Wrestling

The Ringerriege Zürich [RRZ] was founded with the aim of giving Olympic wrestling in the city a strong and sustainable base again.
We cover various styles: freestyle, Greco-Roman, wall-wrestling, and wrestling as a foundation for No-Gi and MMA. Performance-oriented in competition, open in training culture.

Zurich is back. A city with a sporting history, with character and with wrestling tradition. Names like Kurt Rusterholz – a world-class athlete and international medalist, or Hans-Jörg Hirschbühl represent times when Zurich wrestlers were present at the highest level.

Today, the RRZ is building on this tradition.

The new beginning was initiated by Burkhard Johannens Vetsch, who brought wrestling back to the city – with experience from the wrestling stronghold of Grabs.

The Ringerriege Zürich sees itself as a modern collective: performance-oriented, ambitious, and with a clear vision. We build structures, promote young talent, and develop competitors – step by step.

Zurich is wrestling again.
