Solution 2
A Good Kabaddi Player
Any player requires various characteristics to emerge as a good player. The game of Kabaddi, too, requires physical and mental fitness. While good health, muscular strength, and strategic skills are essential to emerge a winner, other traits are equally important. Determination, dedication, devotion, consistency in performance, and willingness to give one’s best are paramount.
We can acquire these skills if we resolve to do our best and give our hundred percent to the game. The right skills, ample practice, and the will to excel will help us reach our goal. Watching Kabaddi matches on television, seeking help from experts, finding one’s weak areas, and working on them are ways to develop attributes to become a good Kabaddi player.
'Hard work is the key to success' in Kabaddi or any other game. Let Us Remember: "The heights which great men, reached and kept, were not attained by sudden flight, they, while their companions slept, were toiling upwards in the night."

Hanmant Gaikwad was born in Koregaon in Satara district.
“My native place is Rahimatpur, around 10 km from Koregaon. My father was a clerk in the court and we lived in a small, rented house.”
Hanmant was a brilliant student especially good in mathematics. When he was in class six, the family shifted to Pune. They lived in Phugewadi near Dapodi in a tiny one-room house-10 by 10 feet. At this point, Hanmant realized the difference between himself and those who had money.
Hanmant was then studying at Modern High School. He needed one rupee to buy a bus ticket to and from the everyday. Even that was hard to come by.
Despite the hardships, Hanmant secured 88% in class 10. Hanmant completed his diploma and joined Philips as a trainee. But he wasn’t happy with the work he got there.
The natural choice for a diploma engineer is to go for a B.Tech. But engineering colleges charge hefty fees. At the time, the family’s only source of income was a teacher’s salary of Rs. 2,300 a month……….
And then I decided to also do some earning. “Khud Ka Kamana Chalu Kiya”.
