Emam khan

Born on December 8, 2006, in the vibrant city of Sambalpur, Odisha, this energetic young lad carries the legacy of strength and passion for Kabaddi. Despite facing the profound loss of his father, Nosad Khan, who tragically passed away in a road traffic accident 14 years ago, he has always felt a guiding presence. His mother, Seema Parween, not only teaches sewing but also has a background as a national-level Kabaddi player, making the sport an indelible part of his family’s story. He found his calling in Kabaddi at the age of 14, thanks to the encouragement of his uncles, who are also Kabaddi players and railway employees. Inspired by their journey, he saw this as an opportunity to secure a job in the future while embracing his love for the game. Training at the Sambalpur club under the guidance of a supportive senior player, he has honed his skills, particularly excelling in the bonus skill. His aspirations are bold; not only does he wish to secure a job with the railway, but he also dreams of showcasing his talent in the Pro Kabaddi League one day. His recent performance at the School Nationals in Telangana has set a promising tone for his future endeavors in Kabaddi. With his heart set on success, he eagerly looks forward to new challenges ahead, fueled by the legacy of his family and the love of the sport.
