Gregory Edgelow
Greg Edgelow (born February 10) is a retired freestyle wrestler from Canada and is a nationally certified Wrestling Coach and Aboriginal Coach with Cree Heritage. He represented Canada at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain and won a bronze medal at the 1990 Goodwill Games in Seattle, two bronze medals at the 1991 Pan American Games in Havana, Cuba and a gold medal at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria. He is an eight-time Canadian senior champion (7 Freestyle and 1 Greco), as well as a juvenile, junior and national university champion. Edgelow is the only Canadian to win a medal in wrestling (bronze) at the Goodwill Games ever. He is also the only Canadian wrestler to win four separate consecutive senior weight classes in Freestyle (82 kg, 90 kg, 96 kg, 100 kg). His last national title was in 1998, the same year that he represented Canada at the World Championships in Tehran, Iran.
Edgelow was awarded the 1999 Canadian Sport Leadership Award〔(Canadian Sport Awards )〕 for his athletic achievements and leadership in volunteerism, beating out fellow finalists Wayne Gretzky and downhill skier Brian Stemmle. Edgelow created Canada's only amateur wrestling radio show, the Wrestling Edge Radio Show, where he interviewed over 150 guests, including some of the most prolific wrestlers in history and some top MMA athletes. Greg has travelled to 70 countries, 60 world capitals and 24 Olympic Host cities through sport, business and leisure travelling.
Born in Edmonton, Edgelow grew up in Coquitlam, Penticton, Vernon, until he completed high school, and then Burnaby and Vancouver since 1982. Greg consults in business development as well working with a software company that helps match foundational grants to non-profit and charitable organizations. He has been involved in the Canadian sport, tourism, entertainment and First Nations communities where he has also participated on 15 boards of directors, including 52 committees.〔(www.athletescan.com )〕 In business, Edgelow has managed companies and organizations and has aligned himself with some well recognized national and international branded companies. His volunteer experiences allowed him to develop and participate on nine adjudication committees in which he has chaired five and helped adjudicate small grants totalling almost five million dollars for sport infrastructure development to needy communities across the country and almost one million dollars in grants to top-performing, volunteer-driven, world-caliber athletes representing Canada. Edgelow was the motivational speaker at the Parade of Nations for the 1997 North American Indigenous Games (NAIG) and member of Team BC Mission Staff at NAIG 2006 and Assistant Chef de Mission at NAIG 2008. Edgelow helps out on occasion with the wrestling clubs around Greater Vancouver. Edgelow and his father, Les, created an endowed scholarship fund at Simon Fraser University in 1996 that is currently worth almost $30,000 that has financially assisted over 30 university wrestlers since its creation.〔(Simon Fraser University )〕
