Kabaddi is a popular sport in South Asia. The basic rules of Kabaddi are simple: two teams of seven players each face off in a large square arena for two halves of twenty minutes each. Players from each team take turns running across the center line to the other team's half of the court ( called "raiding"), tagging members of the other team (4 people defending), and running back. The more opposing team members they tag, the more points they score (+1 point for each player he tags), but if the opposing team can physically prevent them from crossing back to their side of the court, they score no points. During the sports week, a kabaddi match is going to be scheduled between the students of Section A and C. Section A has 42 students while Section C has 35 students
