Common events include wrestling (particularly Pehlwani), kabaddi, and various forms of racing. These sports serve not only as competitive activities but also as a means to reinforce community ties and showcase strength, skill, and endurance, reflecting the values and traditions of the Jat people. They play a significant role in preserving cultural identity and promoting social cohesion.
