Annual New Zealand Sikh sport event
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The New Zealand Sikh Games (NZ Sikh Games) are an annual sports event for the New Zealand Sikh community.[1] They were started in 2019 with the intention to highlight the Sikh community and the discrimination it faces.[2] Over 50,000 spectators were present at the 2023 edition, with some being from abroad.[3]
Many sports are played during the Games, including some traditional South Asian games such as kabaddi and kho kho.[2][4][5] Some Sikh martial arts are also demonstrated during the event.[6]
