The top 4 teams will qualify for the much-awaited K7 Kabaddi World Series tentatively scheduled for February 2022.
Top teams from the earlier held K7 Kabaddi Stage Up (Haryana), will take on the winners of the Rajasthan Qualifiers leg in the K7 Kabaddi series. The series will be much longer than the K7 Kabaddi qualifiers. It will provide the young players with the idea of the regular professional kabaddi season. How to cope along with it and what to expect in the future.
The K7 Kabaddi series is likely to be a 15 week-long event, with each team playing somewhere between 22–40 matches. The key stakeholders in the event will include referees, coaches, and players. All of whom will have the opportunity to evolve and showcase the great sport of Kabaddi. It will be the perfect platform for them, to take their game to the next level and move on towards their dreams of playing in the professional circuit. And who knows someone will end up in the national team soon.
