Gravolite : Empowering Kabaddi as a Modern Day Sport

Gravolite, the mat specialists, empowered K7 Qualifiers which recently concluded in Sonipat. Gravolite were the title sponsors for the event and kindly sponsored a high quality, AKFI & IKF approved mat to ensure K7 Qualifiers provided world class experience for junior players from Haryana. This is the first premier tournament for junior players and experience on the mat transformed into speed and quality of Kabaddi for the fans. To their credit, not one major injury happened in the span of 24 matches during K7 Qualifiers. Gravolite is no doubt empowering the next phase of growth for Kabaddi and stamping its authority as a modern day and multi-nation sport.
