Everything you need to know about Yuva Kabaddi Series

Yuva Kabaddi Series is India’s first year round sports tournament. India resonates with Kabaddi and every Indian has a story to share about Kabaddi. That is the premise for Yuva Kabaddi Series or YKS. 

The tournament is focused on bringing the best out of the youth, and would be providing a platform for them, giving the much needed exposure which could also go on to help them with the experience of playing against the emerging players from various academies and Kabaddi schools.

Having a year round sports tournament would mean being able to track the performances of all the players throughout the year as the tournament is slated to be conducted across different editions in the same year, with the summer edition being the first in line.
