Kabaddi is a traditional Indian sport that originated in ancient India. It is a contact team sport played between two teams of seven players each. The objective of the game is for a single player on offense, referred to as a raider, to run into the opposing team\“s half of the court, tag out as many of their defenders as possible, and return to their own half of the court, all without being tackled by the defenders, and in a single breath.
The game is known for its simplicity and does not require any equipment. It is played on a rectangular court that is divided into two halves. Kabaddi has gained international recognition and is now played in many countries around the world. The Pro Kabaddi League in India has significantly increased the sport\“s popularity.
Kabaddi requires strength, speed, and strategic thinking. Players must have good lung capacity to hold their breath while raiding. The sport promotes physical fitness, teamwork, and mental agility. It is often played in rural areas of India and is a popular pastime during festivals and community gatherings. |
