Description:

Sand flies in every direction as two burly men try to flip their opponent onto their

back. The stakes are high and the crowd

watches in anticipation waiting to see who will win. Laamb in Wolof is Senegalese

wrestling.

Laamb represents an opportunity to be

plucked from obscurity and put on a platform that makes the

winner a nationally known name.
