Kabaddi Raids
Part of: Kabaddi skills
Two teams trade tags; raiders touch defenders and flee home uncaught, a game also played at the Asian Games. Raiders crouch knees bent head high; block-fetch drills span 30 feet and number-call ball grabs start 10 metres out.
Why it matters. Raids sharpen agility.
Try it in two minutes
- Crouch knees bent.
- Fetch blocks fast.
- Grab called ball.
Try at home. Sidestep three ways.
Toe Touch and Kick
Part of: Kabaddi skills
Toe touches crouch low with extended joints, reaching across a 3.75-metre baulk line in four-shape dashes. Kicks stay knee-stiff from stable rear legs in back, side or curve styles, striking corner arms behind the bonus line.
Why it matters. Low reach beats tall blocks.
Try it in two minutes
- Crouch toward midline.
- Cross baulk line.
- Kick without knee bend.
Try at home. Toe-touch a mark safely.
Defence Positions and Holds
Part of: Kabaddi skills
Corners start tackles, ins shield them, covers link with all-rounders, centres anchor. Ankle holds grip the joint to drain the raider's 30-second breath; thigh holds ring the leg at hip line; knee holds back the second supporter.
Why it matters. Holds halt raiders.
Try it in two minutes
- Know four spots.
- Watch raider feet.
- Grip ankle, thigh.
Try at home. Shadow-guard a line.
Wrist Waist Chain
Part of: Kabaddi skills
Wrist holds cup palms from above or below and pull raiders 6 metres to the end. Waist holds seal gaps from the outer shoulder; chain holds link wrists across bellies. Elbow-lock pulls score one point; heads must never collide.
Why it matters. Chains catch what hands miss.
Try it in two minutes
- Cup the wrist.
- Seal waist gaps.
- Link the chain.
Try at home. Practise safe grips.
