Kabaddi
full contact rules (SKA version)
The core
idea of the game is to score points by
raiding into the opponent’s court and touching
as
many defence players as possible without getting
caught on a single breath. The players on the
defensive side are called “Antis”
while the player
of the offence is called the “Raider”.
The attack in
Kabaddi is known as a ‘Raid’. The
antis touched by
the raider during the attack are declared ‘out’
if they
do not succeed in catching the raider before he
returns to home court. These players can resume
play only when their side scores points against
the
opposite side during their raiding turn or if
the
remaining players succeed in catching the opponent’s
raider. Kabaddi Tag.
The playing
area is similar to a badminton court; the
area is 12.50 x 10 metres and is divided in half
by a
mid line. A Baulk line shall be drawn in each
half,
through the entire width of the court with a distance
of 3.75 metres from the mid line. Each side shall
consist of 12 players. Seven players shall take
the
ground at a time and the remaining five players
will
act as substitutes. |
