Aryan Yadav

Born on January 22, 2008, in the lively town of Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, Aryan Yadav has a heartwarming story that captures his passion for kabaddi. Growing up in a close-knit family, Aryan is the son of Syamji, a hardworking farmer, and Uttarabhai, a dedicated housewife. With one elder brother and sister who are both still in school, his home is always filled with love and laughter. Aryan’s journey into the world of kabaddi began at just 13, during a village tournament where he displayed incredible potential as a right raider. His impressive jumps and agility caught everyone’s attention, and it was a defining moment for him. Inspired by his favorite player, Sanskar Mishra, Aryan aspires not only to shine on the kabaddi field but also to mirror Sanskar's supportive attitude towards his teammates. He expresses deep gratitude for the guidance of his coaches, Hemant Yadav and Pradeep Yadav, who have been instrumental in nurturing his talent at Veer Shivaji in Bilaspur. Even though Aryan has yet to compete on a grand stage, he has already made a name for himself by earning the title of best allrounder at a local tournament. Currently in the Eleventh standard, his dreams are set high: to play in the Pro Kabaddi League and represent India internationally. With his dedication and enthusiasm, Aryan is certainly on the right path, and it will be exciting to see where his kabaddi journey takes him!
