Kabaddi is a traditional Indian sport that has gained international recognition in recent years. This contact team sport originated in ancient India and is now played professionally across the country.
The game involves two teams of seven players each, where one player from the attacking team (known as the raider) enters the opposing team\“s half to tag as many defenders as possible while chanting kabaddi repeatedly. The raider must return to their half without being tackled by the defenders.
Kabaddi requires excellent physical fitness, breath control, and strategic thinking. Major tournaments like the Pro Kabaddi League have popularized the sport globally, attracting sponsors and international players.
This indigenous Indian sport showcases the country\“s rich cultural heritage while promoting physical fitness and teamwork among participants of all ages. |
