Kabaddi can be described as a fast-paced, contact sport. Two players are competing against each another to score points. Baulk lines on both sides of a field are used to play the game. These lines are roughly 13 feet apart. Three feet from the baulk lines are added bonus lines. These lines will only be in play if there are six or seven defenders on the defending side. To determine which team wins, the dice or coin are rolled. The first team to go wins the first round. They get to choose raiders or defenders.
Frog Jump
Kabaddi's special move, the frog leap, allows the raider jump high off the ground to take on incoming defenders. This skill requires physical power, timing, and correct body posture when landing. In the past, the frog jump was popularized by Kashiling Adake, who made it an iconic move in his pro career.
Keep your ankle open
An ankle lock is a powerful defensive technique that defenders use in order to take down raiders. Ankle holds can be deadly and require skill, patience, and strength. This powerful move is easy to learn and can be used to your advantage.
toe touch
Kabaddi is known for its Toe Touch. It's a quick move that requires agility, speed and leg strength. It can be used to score bonus points against defenders when there are at least six opponents on the mat. Anup Kumar, Jaipur Pink Panthers' Anup, is an expert in this move.
