Lakpathi Eslavath

Meet a promising young talent from Warangal, Telangana, born on June 5, 2008. Inspired by the thrilling matches of the Pro Kabaddi League, he began his kabaddi journey at the tender age of 11. Growing up in a close-knit family, he shares a special bond with his father, Rajaram Naik, who works in farming, and his mother, Vijji, a devoted housewife. He also has an elder brother named Sampath, who supports his aspirations, although not involved in the sport. Training diligently under the guidance of his coach, Sankar, at the JNS Stadium in Warangal, this aspiring Right Raider excels at hand touches, a skill he considers his best. He admires Pawan Sehrawat for his impressive jumps and techniques, often practicing to emulate his favorite player's moves. Currently in the 11th standard, he balances his academics with his passion for kabaddi, while also enjoying the excitement of cricket in his free time. His aspirations are as high as his jumps during matches; he dreams of playing in the Pro Kabaddi League and hopes to secure a government job. With his dedication and support from his family, the future looks bright for this young athlete.
