Kuldeep Kumar

Born on February 20, 2003, in the quaint village of Dhingawali, Punjab, Kuldeep Kumar's life story is rooted in tradition and hard work. Hailing from a farming family, with his father Bhagirath dedicated to the fields and his mother Suman Devi nurturing the home, Kuldeep learned the importance of determination from a young age. His elder sister, Renu Devi, may not share his passion for kabaddi, but she stands as his unwavering supporter, cheering him on every step of the way. Kuldeep's introduction to kabaddi came at the age of ten. Instantly captivated by the sport, he set his sights on becoming a Left Raider, especially thriving in Bonus skills. His journey became more focused under the watchful eye of Coach Sandeep Singh Sandhu at the Baba Budha Sahib Tarn Taran Academy, a place that helped hone his raw talent. Competing in the Junior Nationals from 2020 to 2022 was a pivotal moment for Kuldeep, where he proudly represented the Punjab team and showcased his skills to a wider audience. Inspired by his kabaddi idol, Maninder Singh, Kuldeep admires his unique running hand touch. With ambitious dreams of competing in the Pro Kabaddi League, he is fueled by passion and persistence. With a solid educational foundation and a heart full of dreams, the future shines bright for this young talent.
