Kabaddi technical officials training course concludes in Avanigadda
Kabaddi is a popular sport played in India.
There are special helpers called technical officials who make sure the game is played fairly.
They recently went to a special school to get better at their job.
The school was held in a town called Avanigadda.
It lasted for four days.
Nearly 91 officials from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana came to learn.
Two experienced teachers, K Jagadeshwar Yadav and V Srinu, taught them the latest rules.
