About the Game

Kabaddi is a team sport. Two teams compete with each other for higher scores by touching or capturing the players of the opponent team.

A team is composed of 7 players. The two teams fight for higher scores, alternating defense and offense. The court is as large as that for dodge ball. The game consists of two 20 minute halves.

The radar, a member of the offensive team, enters the opponents court to touch seven opponents one by one with hands or feet and returns to his original position, thus scoring points. The radar must keep calling, "kabaddi, kabaddi" during the offense. If the defensive team captures the radar and interrupts his call, the radar must leave the court, and the offense finishes. Defending playerstry to stop the radar by tackling and holding. If this is succesfully done, they win a point.
