The UK's first beach wrestling competition will be used to select potential Olympic athletes, officials have said.
Competitors will take part in the tournament at Cleethorpes on 25 July from 11:00 to 13:00 BST.
The matches will take place in a sand circle and are decided by throws, takedowns and boundary control.
Lawrence Dutton, from British Wrestling, said: "It's not WWE, it's just an adaptation of our freestyle rules and it's getting very popular around the world."
Forget Hulk Hogan and the Undertaker, the competitors in beach wrestling follow freestyle rules which are widely used in the Olympics as well as tournaments in the US.
