The Malaysian Kabaddi men’s team etched their names into history by clinching the gold medal at the SEA Games 2025 in Thailand, marking a monumental achievement for the sport in the country. In the final under the 3-Star category, Malaysia faced host nation Thailand and emerged victorious with a commanding 28–16 win, sealing a historic triumph on the international stage.
Adding to the nation’s pride, the Malaysian women’s kabaddi team delivered an equally impressive performance, securing the silver medal after a closely contested final against Indonesia. The match was decided by a razor-thin margin of just one point, highlighting the team’s resilience, determination, and fighting spirit throughout the tournament.
This gold and silver haul comes on the back of another remarkable achievement earlier in the Games, where Malaysia claimed four bronze medals across both men’s and women’s teams in the Standard-style and Super 5 categories. The consistent medal finishes reflect the team’s discipline, hard work, and growing strength in regional kabaddi competitions.
These achievements underline Malaysia’s rising stature in kabaddi and showcase the unwavering team spirit that continues to bring pride to the nation on the SEA Games stage.
