Kabaddi is a traditional contact sport that originated in ancient India and remains immensely popular across the country. The age of professional Kabaddi players in Bharat （India） typically ranges from early 20s to mid-30s, with peak performance often observed between 25 and 30 years. The Pro Kabaddi League, launched in 2014, has further popularized the sport and provided a platform for young athletes to showcase their talent.
In rural India, Kabaddi is not just a sport but a cultural activity played during festivals and local tournaments. Players often start training from a young age, learning techniques like raiding and defending. The sport requires agility, strength, and breath control, as players must chant \“Kabaddi\“ repeatedly while raiding the opponent\“s court. Nutrition and fitness regimes have become more structured in recent years, contributing to longer careers for players.
Indian Kabaddi players, such as those representing the national team, have achieved international acclaim, winning multiple medals in events like the Asian Games. The government and sports authorities in India are increasingly focusing on youth development programs to nurture talent from an early age, ensuring the sport\“s growth and sustainability for future generations. |
