This is takraw
Last Sunday I saw a small takraw tournament being held along Jalan Bundusan in Penampang. They held it on an open public basketball court - yep on a cement floor. I don’t know if anyone got injured or not but with all those acrobatic skills, they really have to land themselves safely.
I think this sport should be exposed more to the world, maybe the popularity will rise and more people will play. If the south americans or europeans adopt this, I think there will be an interesting fight for the title of champion.
This video is a small clip on a game of Sepak Takraw held during the Busan Asian games. Highlights the acrobatic skills of these athletes. Video after the link.
