Karan Singh

Born on February 18, 2001, in Kurmad, Bihar, this enthusiastic kabaddi player grew up in a close-knit family. His father, Narendra Prasad Singh, works a private job, while his mother, Neelam Devi, is a dedicated housewife. With an elder brother, Karnal Kumar Sing, and two sisters, Putul Kumari and Lovely Kumari, family support has always been a cornerstone for him, despite his siblings not pursuing kabaddi. His passion for the sport ignited at the young age of 14, influenced by his childhood love for kabaddi. He practices diligently at the Dev Kabaddi Academy in Patna under the guidance of Coach Rupender Singh. This commitment has allowed him to become an all-rounder, exhibiting exceptional skills as a left corner defender and right raider. His standout ability, the jump, is something he particularly admires in his favorite player, Pawan Sehrawat. A proud participant in the YKS Monsoon Edition in Madurai, he considers getting selected for YKS a significant milestone in his early career. As he continues to nurture his skills and aspirations, his dream is clear: to keep playing kabaddi at higher levels and one day make his mark in the sport he loves so much.
