You need no kit, just a piece of grass land and you can play this. And more than that you get to tackle people and everyone in the team gets to play and be the hero.
😂 I was about to say that. My mom ultimately run out of buttons and made my school shirt bottons a rainbow. That was the fun that all govt school kids at some point enjoyed 😂😂
Ok the single breath rule was introduced when there were no clocks .. atleast a thousand years ago to restrict the raiders time .. if he runs out of his breath he needs to retreat nowadays there are timers so the raider has 30 second to score but the ancient tradition of single breath has been passed down as part of the game.
This game teaches me not to afraid of any huge human being merely because of his big height or size. It gives you much more physical confidence. It's also good for girls to play & improve their physical capacity equal to boys.
Equal to boys is saying too much but yeah it's good as it removes the fear of being tackled and sharpens reaction time in such a situation. Good for self confidence in one's own ability to deal with it. Those tactics helped me run away from a difficult situation of violent threat by a guy. He was caught by surprise while I reacted without thinking getting free of the hold. I gained enough time to rush in more crowded area to get help.
The only reason I know of Kabaddi is thanks to a recent anime series of the same name. Found it to be an interesting sport. If you like anime, it may be worth a watch.
It's a very ancient traditional game from India. It's played in some other countries of Asia too and have been played in Asian games. Kabaddi and kho Kho. Both games need quick reaction times.
Watch pro kabaddi and few highlights. It is an Indian kabaddi league. For your question it is consider a touch (a point) if raider did not cross the mid line for raiding team but if he did cross the line and opposing team quickly follows and cross the mid line and touch the raider who just got back that become persue Check out the persut part of the video you'll get what I'm trying to say
I live in Sri Lanka and kabaddi is not very famous here even though India is very close. But. Some ppl do play it, and middle school days I used to play it everyday at school. It used to be a very fun game.
Some of the footage are from world cup match video, I loved the game. And most strong teams are India, Iran, Korea, pakistan and some south asian and African teams and then European and lastly American(not us) teams .
When I was a kid i used to play with my friends in the street... every kid in our village know the rules...it's a simple yet interesting game...thanks for watching
It's a traditional sport, but it's only been codified recently. I think that it's actually been codified twice, by two different organizations, with slightly different rules.
The holding breath rule isnt there anymore ... It used to be thousands of years ago to limit the raiding time of the raider ... Nowadays its 30 seconds each raid ..and yes they have to keep repeating the words Kabaddi
although it is an old sport and is popular as a local sport in various countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran, Afghanistan. It is recently getting more popular around the world.
Special thing about watching kabaddi is, your heart will be running at the speed f1 car, from starting to the end of the game. And I'm from birth land of kabaddi ❤
Pro League rules are complicated, locally we play either to wipe out the opposition or revive our own player. When one team is completely eliminated other team wins.
Looks like a game that originated in the playground. Kind of reminds me of British bulldog. We used to play that at school (in Australia) at lunchtime.
Believe it or not, but it actually stems from the time when humans were primarily hunter-gatherers, when they would hunt a prey (eg a Boar) in groups - Raider being the boar with the defender's being the human hunters. Kabaddi is an ancient sport
I was playing in school with my friends....we use to make only one court because first team use to come and raid for 10 to 15 min and then after 15 min other team use to score more points than opponents in same time....and moreover we use to play on hard surface and yes sometimes we use get hurt but still lots of fun we can't stop ourselves from playing again and again....now I'm passed out from but school miss those days 😞 My favourite moves were back hold , ankel hold , and running touch points I use to play as a all rounder in my team ✌️😁 Lots of love from 🇮🇳 Research more watch highlights of "Pro kabaddi league of India" u will definitely love this sport....!! ❤️
7:46 Yes, that also constitutes as a point, which is why defenders are usually hesitant to try and tackle the raider if he is close to the mid line. It usually happens in untrained teams that when the raider is retreating after scoring a point, some defenders think they'll be able to tackle him if they all work together while the remaining defenders think they won't be able to tackle the raider at all and so they avoid touching him. All this happens in a split second and for an untrained team, it means every defender acts alone and not as a team, leading to a weak defence overall.
I first heard about the sport about 30years ago. There was a TV Show on channel 4 here in the UK. I was chatting with a Pakistani friend of mine a good while ago and he said it is played in this country but not well known. When I first saw it, I always thought it we be a fun pastime but never had the chance to participate. At 56years old I think I'm bit to long in the tooth to play now. Nice vid though mate, maybe you could see if you could find some other obscure sports. Take care bud.
@@Prajjwal295 Thanks mate, when was it first played professionally. The old grey matter isn't what it used to be, I seem to recall the sport being played outdoors on a dusty pitch in India with teams coming from the Punjab etc. Enjoyed watching it. Take care bud.
@@andyb2920 exactly... I think kabaddi is the part of Asian Games since 1990s .. But no one knows About this sport. . That's true.. Before it was played on Dusty ground with little different rules as compare to the professional. And You should know, that type of kabadi is still famous in various areas in Pakistan and Punjab
It's simple you just have to go to enemy territory and score pts by touching them or by bonus and return back to ur half without getting caught...and all the other rules u will gradually understand if u watch more of it
You have learnt all you have to theoretically ,now jump into the Arena you will know everything.It will come only playing .All the Best . Kabbadi . Kabbadi, Kabbadi...🔥👍
It’s single breath but it’s not banned to do normal breathing but you have to say “kabaddi” or “Hutu tu….” or any word as every state has its version. Once you stop saying word it’s assumed that you have lost your breath or you have been effectively tackled. I had only played traditional one. But it’s far simple than it looks at first sight.
As in ancient times their were no clocks to note the raiders time . People used to fill up their lungs ( took a deep breath ) and should chant kabbadi continuously so if u are out of 1 breath your raiding time period ends.
When playing with friends for the fun of it .. Don't need complicated rules of holding the breath or chanting the word Kabbadi .. just raid other half and touch a player and try to come back .. it's too much fun. And forget bonus line or lobby area .. unnecessary in a casual games with friends. just enjoy it.
Man it was my best childhood game. I was in the kabbadi team of my school and I was the defender but kabbadi of my place always end of someone critically injured or broken bone 😅
Okay good news bro. The new season of *PRO KABADDI LEAGUE* will kick off soon. You can keep an eye on that. It's a superbowl of KABADDI just to give you a reference. You know to commercialise the game they picked out 8 cities all over India and auction off best , good players not only from India but also around the globe in particular teams and pitted them against each other for Some filthy cash! *calling it just exciting would be an understatement of the century.* Try to watch it if you may. 😅👍
professional 100 m sprinters hold their breaths to enhance performance. Chanting kabaddi loud enough ensures that you have to take breaths to chant it and cannot hold your breath to enhance your performance. It's a nice trick.
This something you have never heard of this game and this is something that is going to surprise you and it is tough and body contact too and a few get injured thanks.
If a defender touched the raider and he goes back after that the player who touched him is out so aim is to hold him in your half and allow him to reach the centre line, thanks.
It is only game which is played by every Indians once in a life*✌️🙋♂️
You need no kit, just a piece of grass land and you can play this.
And more than that you get to tackle people and everyone in the team gets to play and be the hero.
cricket also
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
people from the middle class & from villages only know about Kabaddi........ not rich stinking from Northern part of India......
I never had the guts to play it. But played Kho kho a lot in school tho.
I still can't count how many buttons I lost in school playing kabbadi & getting my ass wooped by my mother 😂😂. Those were fun times 🥲
Yeah bro tiffin time was fun

you are right you have to do all this thing in one breath 🇳🇪
There is 1 unspoken rule of kabaddi as a defender. You only touch the raider when you are sure you can tackle them out.
Else you lose a point
there are 100 rules in soccer too when you get professional.. but the basics and core objective of both the sports are simple.
Some of the footage are from world cup match video, I loved the game. And most strong teams are India, Iran, Korea, pakistan and some south asian and African teams and then European and lastly American(not us) teams .

Most of the kabaddi players have physic like wrestlers 👍
This sport has now become far more popular...and yes it is somehow strategic as well as super fun
Highly energetic, fast, team compatibility, one of oldest Indian games, faamous in rural India, actually originated frm there.
Remember playing this in school lol it was fun

This is a tough sport and once u understand the rules and the games, you will like the most...
The one breath rule was used in ancient times when not now.
No it still is or else you get out its called cant out although raiders do take some breaths in between but the chanting must continue

Breathe system is old now there is a 30 second rule
It's a game as well as a good physical exercise. It is good for lungs as well, as the players have to keep control over his breath etc..
Check PKL matches, that's advantural game like you are dom of fast and furious, game is full fill with stunts
Please react to British and irish lions vs south africa cheslin kolbe was great in it
I did watch the SA "A" match It was a lot of fun. Can't wait for the next Test
You have learnt all you have to theoretically ,now jump into the Arena you will know everything.It will come only playing .All the Best . Kabbadi . Kabbadi, Kabbadi...🔥👍
In the older(original) version of Kabaddi, you had to raid in one breath. But in the modern version each raid last for max 30sec.
After he said kabadi only one thing strike my mind..."gaadi waala aaya ghar se kachra nikaal" .... 😂😂
It’s single breath but it’s not banned to do normal breathing but you have to say “kabaddi” or “Hutu tu….” or any word as every state has its version.

I'm from India and in India in school time kabaddi is more famous and likely play than cricket.
One doesn't need to hold the breath while chanting Kabaddi. Timing for one raid is 30 sec one can breath as many times as one wants.
Watch it live in November 2021.
THE PRO KABADDI LEAGUE

Such an irrelevant and absurd comment.
Man it was my best childhood game. I was in the kabbadi team of my school and I was the defender but kabbadi of my place always end of someone critically injured or broken bone 😅
United States of America 🇺🇸played Kabaddi World Cup in 2016☺️☺️☺️, nice review love from 🇮🇳
Kabbadi should be included in the Olympics ❤️
It should have included a long time ago, if Fencing is included, if Taekwando is included, why not Kabaddi which is more fun?
Kabbadi is best game in school life.Bo bhi kya din the 😭❤️
It's very popular in india and the PKL(pro kabbadi league) 2021 is going to start soon
You just have to play one time ... you'll understand whole thing .... USA to has a kabbadi team which participated in last world cup
You have to cross the line, touch the bonus line or any person and come back to your area,.....whole in one breath. If you breath...you are out
This is a game, along with kho-kho, that most Indians know from their childhood.
Pretend PILLOW fight tag without the PILLOWS ???

You can still chant the word kabaddi while you exhaling or inhaling. It's a kind of exercise.
The thing many Americans don't know is America have kabaddi team.
Wrestling and Rugby inside a badminton court!
In india every child had played or has playing this game its one of the best game
I know from which game u are wanting to compare this game but fun fact is that kabbadi is played before many years from that game .
It's not just kabaddi is complicated . All game when it intoduce to you first time everyone will felt that game complicated.
Legends say Kabadi originated in Tamilnadu, India about 4000 years ago.
Caw Buddy! there you go!
It's like a game of british bulldog on a smaller area
Great fun to play.
My grandsons are addicted to this 😁
