About Kabaddi Champions League Haryana (KCL)
The Kabaddi Champions League Haryana is a franchise-based professional kabaddi tournament, officially recognized by the Amateur Kabaddi Association of Haryana (AKAH). The league holds exclusive rights to organize professional kabaddi competitions across the state.
What makes KCL special is its vision. This is not just another league—it’s a movement. For years, Haryana’s villages (gaon) have produced raw kabaddi talent, but opportunities were limited. KCL bridges that gap, bringing rural talent onto national television and big stadiums.
One standout moment from the auction was Devank Dalal, who became the highest-bid player at ₹19.2 lakh, snapped up by the Bhiwani Bulls. Such moments highlight how KCL is changing lives and professionalizing grassroots kabaddi.
From gaon akhadas to prime-time TV matches, KCL Haryana truly represents “gaon se glory tak”.
