gold medal in kabaddi

Kabaddi is a traditional Indian sport that has gained international recognition in recent years. The gold medal in kabaddi represents the highest achievement in this indigenous game that originated in ancient India.

The sport of kabaddi 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 defenders try to stop the raider from returning to their half.

India has dominated international kabaddi competitions, consistently winning gold medals in major tournaments like the Asian Games and World Cup. The Pro Kabaddi League, launched in 2014, has further popularized this traditional sport across India and globally.

Kabaddi equipment remains simple and traditional - players typically compete barefoot on a rectangular court, wearing minimal protective gear. The sport emphasizes physical strength, breath control, and strategic thinking, making it a unique indigenous product of Indian culture.
