"Can't believe IOC is cutting wrestling!  Huge blow to our sport all over the world".


The Twitter reaction from Carol Huynh of New Hazelton, who won a gold medal for Canada in Beijing and a silver in London.


Earlier today the I-O-C announced it was dropping wrestling from the 2020 games, but it was keeping modern pentathalon, a sport of five disciplines based on what an 18th century cavalry soldier needed to know.


Mark MaCrae is a well-known wrestling coach at Guildford Park secondary in Surrey.


He worries the I-O-C decision will take away the ultimate dream for many kids wrestling today.
