movements without catching the opponent.
2. Long distance - wrestlers catch the sleeves by one or both hands.3. Middle distance - sambists cathch each other's cloth on the front of the body, or cathch the
sleeve by one hand and the cloth by another.

• Main catches during standup-wrestling are catches needed for throws. Sambist makes such a
catch before opponent's catch.
• Reply catches during standup-wrestling are catches executed in reply to opponent's catch,
with using the situations. Reply catches also can be used for throws.
