Tamil lionesses

Global Indian Pravasi Kabaddi League: Tamil Lioness, Marathi Falcons and Punjabi Tigress registered wins in the women's games in the ongoing Global Indian Pravasi Kabaddi League (GI-PKL) at the Gurugram University here on Wednesday. The GI-PKL commenced last week and will run for 13 days, with the final schedule for April 30 here at the Multipurpose hall of the Gurugram University.

In a unique and progressive move, the Global Indian Pravasi Kabaddi League has women players competing on the same mat size as the men—something that is rarely seen in traditional kabaddi tournaments.

Typically, women’s matches are played on a slightly smaller mat, but this league has taken a bold step to ensure equal challenge and competitive standards for all athletes. This initiative not only enhances the experience for women players but also promotes gender equality in the sport.
