Unit 1
Kabaddi is the national game of Nepal. It is a team game with seven players
in each team. Raiding and tackling are the two main skills in it and the
scores are given on the basis of these two skills. It is played in a rectangular
court. Though it is our national game we don’t have a decent record in
internationals. India does it pretty well in Kabaddi and the game is very
popular there.
