    Tokai Citizens Gymnasium: Thailand men’s kabaddi team coach Ravindra Shetty said the country’s historic Asian Games bronze medal is a sign of the sport’s growing popularity there, after Thailand secured its first men’s kabaddi medal at the continental event since the sport’s introduction in 1990.

    Thailand secured the bronze medal after losing 28-66 to India in the semifinal at the Tokai Citizens Gymnasium on Friday. The result ended Thailand’s campaign with a historic podium finish and marked its first Asian Games medal in men’s kabaddi in 36 years.

    Ravindra, who has been coaching kabaddi in Thailand for the last three years, said he began his stint there from scratch following the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.
