Ready to add a powerful and versatile takedown to your arsenal? Today, we’re breaking down the classic Sweep Single. This technique, when executed correctly, can be a game-changer on the mats.
We love the Sweep Single at High Noon because of its versatility – it can be deployed from many different setups, tie-ups, and distances – and its unique ability to mitigate the most common defense against leg attacks in wrestling – the sprawl. In our opinion, the most significant advantage of the Sweep Single is its inherent rotational element. When executed well, the natural sweeping motion of the takedown effectively neutralizes your opponent’s ability to sprawl, which can greatly increase your chances of a successful takedown.
