Childhood photos of Gurman Singh and his family
Guman has loved sports since he was a child and started his sports journey with Gully Cricket. It was his uncle who encouraged him to give up cricket and build a career in kabaddi. He was impressed by Guman’s speed, flexibility and agility. His uncle also believed that building a cricket career would require a huge financial investment that his humble family could not afford. When Guman started playing, there were no kabaddi venues in his village. Therefore, his uncle saved some farmland and opened a kabaddi venue for Guman practice. He was trained by his uncle for three years. Later, Ghuman joined an academy along with his kabaddi friend Manish. After that, he participated in various competitions. He suffered a foot injury that slowed down his performance. In fact, at the time, he considered quitting the sport and finding a job. So his uncle called him back to the village and started training him again.
