Championship Structure & Future Phases
The Bangladesh Kabaddi Federation has adopted a zonal format for the National Kabaddi Championship. The entire competition is divided into eight zones, aiming to decentralise and popularise the sport.
Road to the National Finals
Zonal champions will proceed to the inter-district stage. The top teams from this stage, along with teams from services divisions, will then compete in the national finals in Dhaka.
Organisers believe that this zonal format will help nurture local talent, promote regional participation, and elevate kabaddi’s popularity across the country.
