1. One team sends a raider across the mid line. The raider tries to tag members on the other team and run to the side of the court and each person they touch equals one point if they make it back before running out of breath.

2. The raider must keep yelling kabaddi non-stop until they go back onto their side and if they take a breath or stop they must return to their side scoring zero points and awarding a point to the defenders.

3. The defenders job is to run away from the raider until they are out of breath or block them from getting back to their side of the court.

4. Defenders cannot hold raiders from crossing the line by anything but their limbs (No hair or clothes).

6. If you are tagged by a raider you are out and if your a raider you and you don’t get back to your side on time you are also out. The only way to get back in is for your team mates to get an opposing player out.

5. Teams alternate between raiding and defending for 2 halves of 20 minutes each

7. If you get every player from the opposing team out you score a lona which is 2 extra points on top of all the points for getting them out. When a lona is scored the whole opposing team is revived.
