It follows stops in Portuguese city Chaves in March, Rio de Janeiro in May and Odessa in Ukraine last month.

Men will compete in the 70 kilograms, 80kg, 90kg and over-90kg categories, while women will do so in the 50kg, 60kg, 70kg and over-70kg divisions.

Group rounds will take place tomorrow and continue through to Sunday (September 8).

The elimination rounds and finals are scheduled for Sunday afternoon, prior to a closing celebration.

The UWW confirmed plans for the Beach Wrestling World Series in February of this year.

It features cash prizes totalling CHF15,000 (£12,300/$15,100/€13,700) per event.
