Aslam-mu-Alakum !
Each region and country has its own traditions, customs and culture. Thus, according to the culture and traditions, some activities are very popular in these areas.
People in my city are very interested in sports as well as being educated. It would not be wrong to say that almost every international game is played in my area.
Young people in my city love to play sports like cricket, hockey, volleyball, football and kabaddi. But the traditional game of my city Moch that people have been playing for centuries is Kabaddi.
The game of Kabaddi has been played in my city for centuries and people of all ages in my city, young and old, play the game of Kabaddi with great interest.
But the government of my district held an open kabaddi match on March 23, 2022 this year and the best kabaddi players from all parts of Punjab and Pakistan participated in this match.
In open kabaddi match each team can add players of any age and weight in the team and that is why this match is called open kabaddi.
The match started at 4pm local time and ended at 7pm. District sports officers and local dignitaries attended this important match as guests.
I'm enjoying match in crowd. You can see how my area people are enjoying sports. There is no security and people from all four side comes to my city ground. We love sports peace love and give respect to all outsider.
I have mentioned in my previous posts that the people of my city are very peaceful. Playgrounds in my city are playing an important role in providing a healthy environment for the youth.
But one of the fears we face is the growing population and the demise of the playground. Because in my city there is no playing field for the government till now. And the world is also a playground, the land is owned by the locals and the playgrounds are changing in population as the population grows.
But at the moment people of my area are interested in sports you can find in the pictures of this post. I think the government should make the playgrounds in my area a regular playground so that no one can buy that place and the playgrounds should be inhabited like this forever and keep the youth of my city healthy.
When I arrived at the kabaddi ground on March 23, 2022, I saw that thousands of people had come to watch the kabaddi match and on March 23 every year the government also held a local holiday all over Pakistan so that all Pakistanis Celebrated as National Solidarity and during this time games and events are organized in different cities and in this connection the district government had organized open kabaddi match in my city.
Old, adult ,young and children every one is watching match , smiling face are my city face. It is my message love peace and build promote sports in world.
When I arrived at the kabaddi ground, I tried to sit in a place where I could see the players clearly.
So I saw that there were thousands of citizens inside and outside the ground but I dared and entered the ground and as soon as I entered the ground in search of a place it was announced on the speaker that all the audience and people Stand up because the national anthem will be recited before the start of the match
and as soon as the people stood in thousands, I stood in the right place and as soon as the anthem ended I sat down at the same place
Both the teams entered the field and the players started exercising and running around the field.
I have taken some pictures during this time. I hope that the pictures will help you to understand the crowd and the players and the game.
A player in red underwear walking in crowed after getting victory and getting cash prize from public.it is our traditional way of joy. One person lifted player on his shoulder and giving him great courage. It is our traditional way.
The players in both teams were very famous. Whenever a player returned to his team after winning, thousands of people enthusiastically praised and encouraged the player.
When a player clearly defeated another famous player, the winning player would come out victorious to the people and the people would encourage him with cash.
People in my city give cash out of pocket to encourage kabaddi players so that the player is encouraged and thus the players are also encouraged that the people are liking their game.
We have a tradition that whenever a player comes to the people in a triumphant manner to receive gifts from the people,
a drummer comes playing the drums and he goes to the people enthusiastically while playing the drums.
People dance and perform traditional dances on the victory of their favorite player. This is a very beautiful scene.
People enjoying game ...traditional way
Drummer is playing drum .it is our traditional music.
In this way, I sat in a crowd of thousands and watched my centuries-old traditional game and had a lot of fun. Currently, steps are being taken to promote the game of Kabaddi in the educational institutions of my area. Because with the advent of internet games today our traditional games are disappearing and new generation is spending time playing computer games. I think we should take all possible steps to settle the playground in our respective areas and whatever country you belong to. We must work to promote the sport at every level in our city and this post of mine is a link in the same chain. I hope you like the centuries-old traditional sports and games style of my area. Thank you very much all of you.
I've heard and seen so much about kabaddi, it sounds and also looks fun.
I hope your government will be able to acquire the land as a permanent playground so as to encourage more players.
I enjoyed reading through 😊😊.
Good morning Actifiters.
