|March 1 - 31, 2023
A small group of four members including two female athletes, represented Nagaland in wrestling during the recently concluded Khelo India Youth Games 2022 held in Madhya Pradesh.
The onus was on them to keep the tradition of wrestling in the state alive.
Modern wrestling is entirely different from the traditional Naga style of wrestling known as Kene. “The traditional Naga style of wrestling is supposed to be the oldest combat sport in the North Eastern state of India,” Khokhwe Kikhwesiil, Nagaland wrestling team coach said.
According to him, youngsters in the region are coming forward to learn the modern style of wrestling, but it will take time to make an impression at the national level. Kikhwesiil added, “I think it will take some time for modern wrestling to grow in Nagaland.”
