 Introduction
Kabaddi is a contact team sport, played between two teams of seven players each. The
objective of the game is for a single player on offence, referred to as a "raider", to run into
the opposing team's half of a 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. Points are scored tagged by the raider, while the opposing team earns a point
for stopping the raider. Players are taken out of the game if they are tagged or tackled, but
are brought back in for each point scored by their team from a tag or tackle.
It is popular in South Asia and other surrounding Asian countries. Although accounts of
kabaddi appear in the histories of ancient India, the game was popularised as a competitive
sport in the 20th century. It is the national sport of Bangladesh. It is the state game of
the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh , Bihar , Haryana , Karnataka , Kerala , Maharashtra
, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Uttar Pradesh.
There are two major disciplines of Kabaddi: so-called Punjabi kabaddi, also referred to as
"circle style," comprises traditional forms of the sport that are played on a circular field
outdoors, while the "standard style," played on a rectangular court indoors, is a discipline
played in major professional leagues and international competitions such as the Asian
Games.
The game is known by numerous names in different parts of South Asia, such
as: kabaddi or chedugudu in Andhra
Pradesh; kabaddi in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala and Telangana; kabadi or ha-
du-du in Bangladesh; bhavatik in Maldives, kauddi or kabaddi in the Punjab
region; hu-tu-tu in Western India, hu-do-do in Eastern India; chadakudu in South
India; kapardi in Nepal; and kabadi or sadugudu in Tamil Nadu.

History
Although unverified, theories from religious believers state that Kabaddi originated from
either the Vedic period of ancient India, or the Sistan region of present-day Iran. The
game was said to have been popular among the Yadava people;
an abhang by Tukaram stated that the god Krishna played the game in his youth, while
the Mahabharata contains an account of Arjuna being able to sneak into hostile areas
also take out enemies unscathed, which they are claiming that parallels the gameplay of
kabaddi.
There are also accounts of Gautama Buddha having played the game recreationally.
Despite these conflicting claims, India has been credited with having helped to popularize
kabaddi as a competitive sport, with the first organized competitions occurring in the
1920s, their introduction to the programme of the Indian Olympic Games in 1938, the
establishment of the All-India Kabaddi Federation in 1950, and it being played as
a demonstration sport at the inaugural 1951 Asian Games in New Delhi. These
developments helped to formalize the sport, which had traditionally been played in villages,
for legitimate international competition.
After being demonstrated again at the 1982 Asian Games in Delhi, Kabaddi was added to
the Asian Games' programme beginning in 1990.

Variations of kabaddi
Standard Style
In the international team version of kabaddi, two teams of seven members each occupy
opposite halves of a court of 10 by 13 metres (33 ft × 43 ft) in case of men and 8 by 12
metres (26 ft × 39 ft) in case of women. Each has five supplementary players held in
reserve, i.e. for substitution. The game is played with 20-minute halves with a 5-minute half
break in which the teams exchange sides. During each play, known as a "raid", a player
from the attacking side, known as the "raider", runs into the opposing team's side of the
court and attempts to tag as many of the seven defending players as far as possible for a
raider. For a raid to be eligible for points, the raider must cross the baulk line in the
defending team's territory, and return to their half of the field without being tackled (note
that if an attacker touches a defender and hasn't yet reached the baulk line, they don't need
to reach the baulk line to score points and may return to their half of the court ). While
doing so, the raider must also loudly chant the word "kabaddi", confirming to referees that
their raid is done on a single breath without inhaling. A 30-second shot clock is also
enforced on each raid.
A point is scored for each defender tagged. If the raider steps beyond the bonus line
marked in the defending team's territory, they earn an additional point known as a bonus
point. If the raider is successfully stopped, the opposing team earns a point instead. All
players tagged are taken out of the game, but one is "revived" for each point a team scores
from a subsequent tag or tackle (bonus points do not revive players). Players who step out
of the boundary or lobbies are also out. A raid where no points are scored by the raider is
referred to as an "empty raid". By contrast, a play where the raider scores three or more
points is referred to as a "super raid". If a team gets all seven players on the opposing team
out at once ("All Out"), they earn two additional points and the players are placed back in
the game.
Additional rules are used in the Pro Kabaddi League: if a team has two empty raids in a
row, the next raider must score a point on their next raid, because the next raid is a "do-or-
die" raid. In this raid, the player must either get a point or be out. If the raider does not get
a point then the opposite team will get a point and the raider will be declared out.
Additionally when fewer than four players left on the field, tackles are worth 2 points
("super tackle").

Circle Style
There are four major forms of Indian kabaddi recognised by the amateur federation. In
Sanjeevani kabaddi, one player is revived against one player of the opposite team who is
out. The game is played over 40 minutes with a five minute break between halves. There
are seven players on each side and the team that outs all the players on the opponent’s side
scores four extra points. In Gaminee style, seven players play on each side and a player put
out has to remain out until all his team members are out. The team that is successful in
outing all the players of the opponent’s side secures a point. The game continues until five
or seven such points are secured and has no fixed time duration. Amar style resembles the
Sanjeevani form in the time frame rule, but a player who is declared out stays inside the
court while play continues. For every player of the opposition touched "out", a team earns a
point. Punjabi kabaddi is a variation that is played on a circular pitch of a diameter of 22
metres (72 ft).
 International competitions
The following competitions are played in standard format, for that of circle style kabaddi,
see Punjabi kabaddi.
