About us

 

We are a sports club that aims to shine light on the Indian sport of kabaddi. The game of kabaddi is very simple and is basically a cross between tag and wrestling. If you have heard of the game “Bulldog” then it is a very similar game to that!

 The aim of the game is to tag the other teams players out in a specific amount of time without getting tackled to the floor by the opposition. It is a very tactical game so you would need to have your wits about you!!!

I think people should join this club as it is unique, diverse and is a good way of connecting with different student groups. We regularly get a large amount of freshers during our give it a go sessions and they tend to stay on and join the team.

We have an affiliation with the Hindu Society as well and so Kabaddi has the benefit of being an AU sport and taking part in all of their activities as well as being able to partake in faith society events. You can check out our instagram page to see more Kabaddi content!
