Extractions: SEPAK TAKRAW EQUIPMENT TERMINOLOGY OFFICIAL RULES HOW TO PLAY Come and Join Us Friday (2 - 5 p.m) and Sunday (1 - 2:30 p.m) Gym B, Women Building Maintainer Sepak Takraw Association HOW TO PLAY One of the features of Sepaktakraw, and reason for its growing popularity, is its simplicity. It is a team game involving three players per side and the object is to volley the woven ball over the net into the opponents court using any part of the body except the hands or arms. Each team is allowed three contacts with the ball to get it over the net. Unlike the similar game concept of volleyball, in takraw on player may take more than one contact consecutively.Points are scored by the serving team, and points are gained if the opposing side fails to return the ball over the net, or a winning shot is played whereby the ball lands in the opponents court. The length of the game varies - there is no time limit. Matches are won by winning 2 out of 3 sets. To win a set, one team must reach 15 points. In 1996, ISTAF changed the rule so that no extra margin or extra points are played - the set is played straight and the first team to reach 15 points wins the set. The third set, if necessary is played to only 6 points and is referred to as a "tie-breaker". Regu (single team)
What's Sepak Takraw? WHAT IS SEPAK takraw ? JAPANESE , ENGLISH. WARNING. This page is Theinternational organization of the Sepak takraw. Both an Asian Sepak http://www.geocities.co.jp/Colosseum-Acropolis/2678/english/whatsepa.html
Extractions: JAPANESE ENGLISH WARNING This page is being translated from Japanese by using the translation software. Approve it though it thinks that there is an a little funny expression. Do you know Sepak Takraw? Sepal Takraw was created by the royal family of Malaysia about 500 years ago. The name itself comes from two languages. Sepak is "kick" in Malay, and Takraw is the "ball" in Thai. When it is born, It looked like Japanese "Kemari", and some became a circle, and a pole was kicked, and the number of times was being competed in. It looks very similar to the Japanese traditional game, "kemari" where the players form a loose circle and the number of times the ball is kicked before it touches the ground is counted. In 1965 the game was unified into the present volleyball style with the addition of a net and the adoption of international rules. The court and the net height and size are identical to those used in badminton and each team has three players. The rules are very similar to those in volleyball , with the following five important exceptions The use of hands is not permitted.

Extractions: "...soccer, volleyball and gymnastics played in one." I love sport. I love to watch track and field, boxing, and swimming. I play Basketball, Volleyball, Soccer, and Gymnastic but sometimes it's boring. What about playing gymnastic, volleyball, and soccer played in one, cool isn't it? You can play it all by playing Sepak takraw. I played it well during my high school. Sepak takraw is originated and a popular ballgame in South East Asia. It is one of the sports has medal at stake on South East Asian Games and Asian Games. A very interesting game and you can see a lot of gymnastics exhibitions more than what Michael Jordan do on the hoops. Takraw ball is made of rattan or very hard plastic weighed approximately 250 grams. Ruling and point system is almost similar to volleyball. You can use head, body, legs and anywhere for volleying and smashing the ball except that the player can't touch with his hand. Facility is not expensive, so you can start right now. Photos of smashing and blocking. Cool, isn't it? Some players used their head to block the ball and I experienced hitting to the head. Also you can invent how to smash the ball like runs up to the net, jump, float in the air, flip upside down while spinning like a helicopter, kick the ball more or less 60 miles per hour. Warning! don't do this while you are still new. Point sytem and ruling.

Extractions: Sepak Takraw ist eine vor allem in Asien weit verbreitete und sehr populäre Ballsportart. Nähere Infos findet ihr unter "Das Spiel/ The Game". Wir, eine Gruppe von Kölner Studenten, betreiben diesen Sport seit mehreren Jahren im Rahmen des Hochschulsports der Kölner Universitäten und Fachhochschulen. Wir wurden 2002 vom Sepak Takraw Dachverband (ISTAF) zur 17. Sepak Takraw WM (auch King's Cup genannt) nach Bangkok eingeladen und waren die erste europäische Mannschaft, die es schaffte eine Medaille - und zwar die Silberne in der Newcomer Gruppe - zu gewinnen. Selbstredend wurden wir 2003 wieder vom der ISTAF zur 18. Weltmeisterschaft in Phatthalung im Juni eingeladen. Dieses Turnier konnten wir auch wieder erfolgreich mit der Bronzemedaille bestreiten, wobei uns das Verletzungspech und eine knappe Niederlage im Halbfinale gegen Kambodscha ein besseres Abschneiden verwehrten. Wir haben gerade einen Verein gegründet - "Takraw-Cologne 03 e.V."
SEPAK TAKRAW SEPAK takraw (Kick Volleyball). Sepak takraw (Kick Volleyball), or takraw forshort, is one of the fastest growing and most popular sports in Asia. http://www.asecint.org/takraw/taksum.html
Extractions: SEPAK TAKRAW (Kick Volleyball) Through the 96/97 to 98/99 school years Sepaktakraw has been "introduced" to over 60 Saskatchewan schools by ASEC International, which is now Saskatchewans official Active Member organization to STAC. Students from about grade 6 or 7 and up have no problem catching on to the sport - and once they try it, they are usually crazy about it! One teacher commented, "All they want to do now is play Takraw, in Phys. Ed., at noon for intramurals and after school! Theyre hooked!" We anticipate most provinces in Canada having an active Takraw Association under umbrella of STAC within 6 years. ASEC International, working with STAC, hosted the first annual, national Sepaktakraw Championships, right here in Regina, with the winning team being eligible to participate in the Kings Cup (World Championships) hosted in Thailand. Rational for Takraw: Takraw Instructional Clinics: Takraw clinics that we teach may be a short 1-hour INTRODUCTION session during an Asia presentation, or it may be its own half or full day clinic that really focuses on learning the skills necessary to play the game.

Takraw takraw is played in various versions in most parts of Southeast Asia there are certain basic rules to takraw, the game varies according to the type of takraw being played http://expo.nectec.or.th/tat/sport/takraw.html
Extractions: Takraw is played in various versions in most parts of Southeast Asia. But perhaps no where else is this fast game, in which players must neither touch the ball nor let it touch the ground, played with the enthusiasm and vigour shown by Thailand's star performers. Games are played in the courtyards of wats, at fairgrounds and (particularly during the kite flying season when there is little or no rain) at the Pramane Graounds in Bangkok. The small and hollow rattan balls which are the essential - and sometimes only necessary equipment for a game are sold in rattan shops and sporting goods shops throughout the country. While there are certain basic rules to takraw, the game varies according to the type of takraw being played as well as the place where it is played. In village games, for example, there is often no referee and no score is kept: the winning player is simply the one who puts on the best show. The intricacy and speed with which it is played are astonishing, and if you think your reflexes are better than average, consider these methods of sending the ball aloft: the sole kick (using the arch or sole of the foot), the instep kick, knee kick, shin kick, shoulder kick, or head kick. Want to try the crosslegged jump kick? The player crosses his left leg over his right above the right knee, and then leaps into the air kicking the ball with his right knee. But that's not all. One can use elbows, shoulders, even the posterior. The more complicated and impressive your feats, the better your score (Or, if a score is not being kept, the better your audience's reaction: spectators can be demanding, if not downright ruthless, in their judgements.)
