Speaking about his experience in the Pro Kabaddi League, Felix said, "The experience in PKL was amazing because Kabaddi is not that big in England. I always dreamed of being a part of PKL as I have been following it since Season 1. I never thought that I would be a part of the Pro Kabaddi League."
Meanwhile, Yuvraj spoke about his journey from watching matches on TV to enjoying PKL stadiums, “It is a completely different experience. On TV, you only watch 40 minutes of action, whereas in PKL, you get the full experience of playing with and against the best players in the world.We have played some international tournaments, but not of this size and level.”
When Yuvraj was asked how he started playing Kabaddi, he said, “I started playing Kabaddi at a young age with a local Hindu group. During a local tournament, the captain of the England Kabaddi team saw me perform and said, 'You play well, come try with us.' One thing led to another and now I play for England.
Meanwhile, Felix talked about how he got into the sport, “I joined the Kabaddi club during my first year in my university.I made a few catches in my first training session and I really like the players in the group. I continued playing." Played the game there and eventually got a place in the England team and then in the PKL team.
With Felix and Yuvraj making it to the big league, they want to see more of their international teammates in the PKL.
“If given a chance, more aspiring Kabaddi players will emerge from England.Our presence in the PKL will give confidence and inspiration to other English players. Hopefully, we will see more Englishmen in the future,” said the crown prince.
