Kabaddi is a traditional Indian sport that originated in ancient times and is widely played across India and other parts of South Asia. It is a contact team sport that requires strength, agility, and strategic thinking. The game involves two teams, each with seven players, who take turns sending a \“raider\“ into the opponent\“s half to tag as many defenders as possible while chanting \“kabaddi\“ without taking a breath. If the raider succeeds and returns safely, points are scored; if not, the opposing team gains points. Kabaddi has gained international recognition, with professional leagues like the Pro Kabaddi League in India boosting its popularity. It promotes physical fitness, teamwork, and cultural heritage, making it a significant part of Indian sports culture. |
