Concept Paper
Circle Style Kabaddi is an ancient and ethnic game of Punjab State. It is highly popular especially amongst the rural masses. Every winter, a large number of Kabaddi tournaments are organized throughout the State. Some of these are sponsored by the NRIs, who especially visit India to actively organize them. The rural masses, who are passionate about the Game of Kabaddi, throng in tens of thousands to witness the matches. These tournaments generate a lot of enthusiasm leading to keenly contested matches.
Having due regard to the popularity of the game of Kabbadi in the State, Govt. of Punjab gave recognition to this game by incorporating it in the Sports Gradation Policy of the State Govt., which entitles the eminent Kabaddi players to avail of various benefits under the said policy. In the past few years, this game has also become quiet popular in various countries of the world where people from Punjab have settled and even Kabaddi tournaments are organized throughout the year in these countries. A large number of players from Punjab go abroad every year to participate in these tournaments and earn a lot of money. With every passing year, the game of Circle Kabaddi is getting popular in various parts of the World.
