Exciting developments are on the horizon for wrestling enthusiasts in Pietermaritzburg! New South African Pro Wrestling (NSAW), which made its debut at the lively Maritzburg Show last October, is setting the stage for a vibrant wrestling culture in KwaZulu-Natal. The team behind NSAW is keenly focused on establishing a professional wrestling presence in the area, with plans for monthly shows that promise to entertain and engage local fans.
Matthew Hammar, one of the driving forces behind NSAW, shared that they are currently scouting locations for training facilities in Pietermaritzburg and Hilton. With the opening of these centers, the community will have the chance to dive deep into the world of professional wrestling. “Our goal is to cultivate a new generation of wrestlers in KwaZulu-Natal, reviving the sport in the province and hosting thrilling shows throughout the region,” Hammar explained.
These upcoming training facilities will not only serve as hubs for learning wrestling moves but will also invite the public to get a taste of what it’s like to step into the ring. “We invite anyone over 16 to explore their passion for professional wrestling and for those over age 10 to check out our Freestyle Wrestling programs,” Hammar revealed.
The inaugural NSAW show on October 12 drew a full house, receiving glowing feedback from attendees eager for more action. Following that success, Hammar emphasized the dedication of NSAW in teaching all aspects of wrestling—from the grappling techniques to character development and the intricacies of wrestling psychology. With a focus on overall fitness and even Freestyle Wrestling, which blends elements of traditional wrestling with MMA, NSAW is set to offer something truly special for aspiring wrestlers.
Under the enthusiastic guidance of Hammar—who boasts over 12 years of experience and numerous championship titles—NSAW is making strides not just in training but also in community engagement. They’re actively encouraging anyone with skills in photography, advertising, or simply a passion for wrestling to join their initiatives and support the cause.
Whether you’re a fan of the sport or someone curious to give wrestling a try, NSAW is ready to welcome you into the fold. As they prepare to put Pietermaritzburg back on the professional wrestling map, the excitement continues to build. Keep an eye on this emerging scene, as NSAW aims to put on shows that the local community won’t want to miss!
