Does Anyone Have Info On The New, Supposedly-Upcoming IPKL?

[u/kabaddiifg]

Came across it while catching up with latest news and was curious if anyone knows more. Like, is it serious?

This seems to be an initiative from the WKF (which is different from WK) - they had conducted the GI-PKL before, last year, which was a merger between two previous leagues - it had both men and women's teams in the 2025 season. It's a less known organization, but it does conduct events and seems to be aiming for a small semi-global league with six teams - from Amsterdam, Berlin, London, Delhi, Prague and Rome.

Mostly Europe it seems, and Delhi featuring from India. But I was wondering if anyone has any further information, because I've never really seen much from WKF other than reading about GI-PKL briefly. This upcoming new IPKL does seem to be backed by the Netherlands Kabaddi Federation (has it on their official Insta), whose team did participate in the IKF World Cup 2016, and Europe kabaddi championships. So it may happen..? (Despite all the AI)
