When the raider scores 10 or more raid points in a single match, it is called a super 10, and they earn an extra point.
A Super 10 is just the milestone of scoring 10 or more raid points in a match; it does not award any extra point by itself.
Full reasoning
Pro Kabaddi's own explanations define a Super 10 as a raider scoring 10 or more raid points in a single game/match. Those official definitions describe it as an individual achievement/statistical milestone, not as a scoring rule that adds an extra team point.
So the article is correct about what a Super 10 means, but incorrect in saying that the player or team earns an extra point for reaching it.

"A Super 10 is achieved when a raider scores 10 or more raid points in a single game." The official explanation describes it as an achievement, not an extra-point rule.

"A Super 10 is completed when a raider manages to single handedly score 10 raid points or more in a Pro Kabaddi match." Again, no extra point is awarded for the milestone itself.
If the defender successfully manages to tackle the five raiders in a single game, it is a high 5, and the team will be awarded one extra point.
A High 5 means one defender records 5 or more tackle points in a game; it does not give the team an extra point just for reaching that mark.
Full reasoning
Pro Kabaddi's official explanation defines a High 5 as scoring 5 or more tackle points in a game by a single player. It is an individual achievement/stat category, not a separate scoring event that awards an additional point.
The only extra tackle-point situation described by Pro Kabaddi is a Super Tackle, where a team with three or fewer defenders stops the raider and gets two points for that tackle. That is different from a High 5.

"Scoring of 5 or more Tackle Points in a game by a single player is known as a High 5." The page explains the term as an achievement, not an extra-point rule.
- What is a Super Tackle?
"if a team is reduced to three or fewer players, executing the same earns them an extra point, therefore a total of two points for a single tackle. Such a tackle is known as a 'Super Tackle'." This shows where an extra tackle point actually comes from.
which was founded in 1973
AKFI's own history page says the federation came into existence in 1972, not 1973.
Full reasoning
The Amateur Kabaddi Federation of India states on its official history page that "the new body, Amateur Kabaddi Federation of India (AKFI) came in to existence from the year 1972". That directly contradicts the article's statement that AKFI was founded in 1973.
