Built for the Mat: PACE International Joins Kabaddi Champions League as Official Apparel Partner

League as Official Apparel Partner

Kabaddi Champions League has partnered with PACE International as its official apparel partner, bringing a brand with genuine professional kabaddi pedigree to every team kit across the league. For a competition built on intense physical contact and split-second raiding, having a technical apparel partner that specialises specifically in kabaddi gear gives KCL franchises kit built for the demands of the sport itself, not adapted from another game entirely.

A Brand Built Specifically for Kabaddi

Founded in 2000 by Neeraj Singhal and headquartered in Delhi, PACE International has grown into one of India's biggest athletic apparel manufacturers, with kabaddi-specific dress and equipment forming a core part of its product range. Unlike general sportswear brands that treat kabaddi as an afterthought, PACE International manufactures jerseys, shorts, and kits designed around the specific physical demands of the sport, reinforced seams for tackles, stretchable fits for raiding, and fabrics built to handle the kind of contact that defines every match.

Proven at the Highest Level

PACE International's association with Kabaddi Champions League follows a track record built at the very top of Indian kabaddi. The brand previously served as the official apparel partner of Patna Pirates, the most decorated franchise in Pro Kabaddi League history with three consecutive titles, kitting out one of the sport's most successful teams during their championship years. That same pedigree extends to Punjab Royals in the Pro Wrestling League, giving PACE International a proven history of dressing champions across multiple contact sports before bringing that expertise to Haryana's newest kabaddi property.

Technology Built for the Tackle

At the centre of PACE International's kabaddi range is its FlexCool technology, engineered to keep players cool, dry, and agile through high-intensity matches. The fabric is designed to be stretchable and breathable without compromising durability, built to withstand the wear of repeated tackles and dives across a long league campaign, while moisture-wicking properties help players stay focused and comfortable through matches played in prime-time evening heat. It's the kind of detail that matters most in a sport where a jersey has to move with a raider mid-dodge and hold up under a defender's grip in the same instant.

On Full Display Through KCL Season 1

PACE International's branding was visible across Kabaddi Champions League Season 1 from the very first match, appearing on team jerseys throughout the tournament, including on eventual champions Rohtak Royals as they lifted the trophy after their dramatic 32-30 win over Bhiwani Bulls. For a brand already associated with championship-winning kabaddi teams, having its kit on display during KCL's first-ever title celebration was a fitting continuation of that history.

What This Partnership Means Going Forward

Bringing in an apparel partner with real professional kabaddi experience gives Kabaddi Champions League a level of on-field polish that matches its broader ambitions as a professionally run competition. As the league builds toward Season 2, PACE International's involvement ensures every franchise steps onto the mat in gear built specifically for the sport's demands, dressed by a brand that already knows what it takes to kit a champion.
