Kabaddi is a sport prone to injury due to the intense physical contact involved in the game. Injuries are significant concerns for kabaddi players, and understanding both the factors that cause injuries and preventive measures is essential for minimizing future injuries. The purpose of this study is to analyze and identify factors contributing to injuries and ways to prevent them for kabaddi players. Data collection for this systematic review employed several comprehensive strategies, following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) framework. The sources used were Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar. Researchers searched for and identified four journals, published between 2017 and 2024, that discuss injury risk factors and prevention for kabaddi players. The systematic review identified several risk factors for injury in kabaddi players, including improper technique, inadequate warm-up, insufficient equipment, and contact-related accidents. Preventive measures include proper warm-up, mouth protection, and strength training for the thigh and calf muscles. Strategies to minimize the occurrence of injuries include adjusting training frequency, using protective equipment, and implementing biomechanical techniques. © 2024, DJ Studio. All rights reserved.
