Kabaddi is a traditional Indian sport that has gained international recognition. Here are the 5 fundamental rules of Kabaddi explained in English:
1. Raiding Rule: The raider must enter the opponent\“s court chanting \“kabaddi, kabaddi\“ in one breath and try to touch as many opponents as possible before returning to their half.
2. Breath Holding: The raider must hold their breath throughout the raid and cannot inhale until returning to their side. This is verified by the continuous chanting.
3. Scoring System: A raider scores points by touching opponents and returning safely. Each touched opponent is out, and the defending team scores if they prevent the raider from returning.
4. Court Dimensions: The standard kabaddi court measures 13x10 meters for men and 11x8 meters for women, divided into two halves with a midline.
5. Team Composition: Each team consists of 7 players on the court, and matches are typically played in two halves of 20 minutes each with a 5-minute break.
Kabaddi equipment used in India includes traditional cotton jerseys, shorts, and barefoot play, though modern competitions may use knee pads for protection. |
