Kickboxing Revolution: KSL Aims to Transform Indian Sports

The Kickboxing Super League (KSL) was launched with much fanfare during the WAKO India National Championship, signaling a new era for the sport in the country.

This pioneering initiative aims to bring a structured approach to kickboxing by introducing athlete contracts, performance-linked rewards, and a clear development path from grassroots to elite competition. Notably, the KSL will feature eight franchise teams, each comprising 34 fighters, with a striking 60:40 ratio of male to female participants.

Emphasizing transparency and governance, co-founder Ajay Adlakha noted that the league is built with the vision of benefiting athletes, partners, and the larger sports ecosystem, while striving to reach global standards.
