Could not tell you what country for sure but if you look hard you can see some type of "Arabic" writing on the wall. it could actually have been in Iran, Armenia, or Turkey. Some of the countries wrestling Kazakistan(sp), Bulgaria, Japan, Germany, Russia, I think I also saw a Cuban in there. Many international meets are announced in French and English. I had a flashback to some of those FILA clinics where we would watch a video and score the action. Funny same video same action could get scored a dozen different ways. This new official uniform was one of the reasons I gave up my FILA License. I thought it was stupid to wear a jacket and tie to ref a wrestling match.
