Sepak Takraw

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

A sepak takraw ball made out of rattan.

Sepak Takraw (Kick Volleyball, or just Takraw for short) is a sport native to Southeast Asia, resembling volleyball, except that it uses a rattan ball and only allows players to use their feet and head to touch the ball. A cross between soccer and volleyball, it is a popular sport in Thailand, Malaysia, Laos and Indonesia. Played on a badminton doubles-sized court, the game evolved from a hacky sack-type practice, into the aiming of a kick into a high, suspended net. Eventually, competitive takraw developed, pitting teams of players versus each other across a volleyball-type net.

Modern competitive takraw allows three players to a team, one to serve, one to gather the ball, and one to deliver the ball at high speed across the net; the killer (like the 'spiker' in volleyball.) Modern contests play to 21 points.

In Thailand, the game is simply called Takraw (Thai: ตะกร้อ, meaning "ball" or "basket"). It is also thuck thay (Lao: "twine" and "kick"), or sepak takraw (Malay: "kick" and "takraw" from Thai)

Similar games include bossaball, footbag net, footvolley, jianzi and sipa. Another version of the sport involves the use of bamboo scoops to both toss and catch a ball in a simple game of "catch."

[edit] History

Sipak takraw dates back to the 15th century when it was played by indigenous Thais and Malays. Back then it was called Takraw in Thai or Sepak Raga (literally "Kick rattan bowl") because the ball is made of rattan) in Malay and played mainly by men and boys standing in a circle, kicking the ball back and forth between them.

In Bangkok, murals at Wat Phra Kaew depict the Hindu god Hanuman playing takraw in a ring with a troop of monkeys. Other historical accounts mention the game earlier during the reign of King Naresuan of Ayutthaya.

The game remained in its circle form for hundreds of years, and the modern version of sepak takraw began taking shape in Thailand sometime during early 1800s.

In 1829, the Siam Sports Association drafted the first rules for takraw competition. Four years later, the association introduced the volleyball-style net and held the first public contest. Within just a few years, takraw was introduced to the curriculum in Siamese schools.

The game became such a cherished local custom that another exhibition of volleyball-style takraw was staged to celebrate the kingdom’s first constitution in 1933, the year after Thailand abolished absolute monarchy.

By the 1940s, the net version of the game had spread throughout Southeast Asia, and formal rules were introduced. In the Philippines the sport was called "Sipa", in Myanmar, or Burma, it was dubbed "Chinlone", in Laos "Kator", "da cau" in Vietnam and in Indonesia "Raga."

[edit] Competitive play

Main article: King's Cup World Championships

The most prestigious tournament of this sport is the King's Cup World Championships, the most recent of which was held in Bangkok, Thailand. As of 2006, there have been 21 King's Cup tournaments.

Thailand currently has the most successful national team in the world, winning 19 of the 21 King's Cup World Sepak Takraw Championships title throughout the years and four Asian Games men's team gold medals in 1994, 1998, 2002 and 2006. Malaysia has the second most successful national team, winning two King's Cup titles and the inaugural Asian Games men's team gold medal in 1990. Myanmar is a new and upcoming force in this sport, as they have reached the final stages of major tournaments like the Asian Games and Southeast Asian Games. There has also been considerable growth of the sport in Vietnam as well as in Korea, Japan, China.

[edit] The game

[edit] Teams

A sepak takraw game is played between three regus, or teams, each regu consisting of three players and one substitute. Each game is composed of three sets in the same manner as badminton. Only three players from each side are allowed inside the court during play but a substitution can be called anytime during the game. However, once a substitution is made, no further substitutions are allowed for the duration of the game.

In a formal competition, there are two kinds of matches: the regu competition and the team competition. In a regu competition, two regus play a game consisting of three sets and the regu with the mosts sets won is declared the winner.

A team competition is more complicated. Each team fields three regus so that a sepak takraw team has a total of 12 players. The first regus of each team will play a three set game and the winning regu earns a point for its team. The second regus of each team will then play and the winner of this second game will earn a point for its team. If the winner of the first and second regu games belong to the same team then the match is finished and the third regus need not play. If however, the winner of the first regu game is not the same team that won the second regu game the third regus will play for the deciding game.

The regu competition is most often played during local events and during physical education. However, in a larger event the team competition is generally preferred.

[edit] Court

Played in a court 20' x 44' (13.4m x 6.1m) similar to a doubles badminton court. The net that divides the court stands 5' (1.52m) at the centre and 5' 1" (1.55m) at the posts for men; 4' 8" (1.42m) at the centre and 4' 9" (1.45m) at the posts for women.

[edit] Ball

Sepaktakraw ball

Traditionally hand-woven, the takraw ball is made of rattan stems or hard plastic. A ball weighs approximately 250 grams.

[edit] Play

Two teams compete for higher scores by spiking a ball into the opponents' court. Each team gets three chances to kick, knee, shoulder or head the ball back to the opposing team. Like in volleyball, there are passes, sets and spikes, but the strokes must be made soccer-style: no hands or arms allowed.

A sight to behold is the smash, in which a player executes a bicycle kick to fire the ball into the opponent's court with great force. In contrast to soccer bicycle kicks, in which the players usually land on their backs (which would be both painful and dangerous on the hard sepak takraw pitch), sepak takraw players are agile enough to land on their feet again.

[edit] Rules

The same rules apply as for international volleyball, with the following exceptions:

players are prohibited from using their hands;
a player or a team can touch the ball 3 successive times;
the players position of the defensive team is not rotated

[edit] Scoring

The match is composed of three sets. The team winning two out of three is declared the winner. All three sets are played in a rally manner. The first two sets are played to 21 points. The team reaching 21 points wins the set. If both teams reach 20 points, the match is extended until a team wins by two points, up to 25. The third set is played for 15 points in rally manner. If both team reach 14 points, it is extended until a teams wins by two points, up to 17.

[edit] Hoop Takraw

Hoop takraw is a variation being played in Thailand, where it is known as lawd buang or lawd huang. The play is similar to circle takraw, especially in its ballet-like moves and the emphasis on creativity, but the goal is to put the ball into a basket-shaped net with three hoop openings in a triangular formation suspended some five to six metres above ground. Each team is given an allotted time, usually 20 or 30 minutes, to put the ball in the basket as many times and as gracefully as they can. Like circle takraw, points are awarded for difficulty, so players break out their full repertoires of such expert manoeuvres as cross-legged jump kicks and other artistic kicks behind the back or with the sole of the foot as well as strikes with the elbows, shoulders and forehead.

Another version of the sport involves the use of bamboo scoops to both toss and catch a ball in a simple game of "catch."

Sepaktakraw

Sepaktakraw players can use their feet, legs, chest, shoulders and head, but not their arms

Sepaktakraw is a highly skilled game, requiring specific techniques in "handling" the ball.

Sepaktakraw is played on a court with a hand-woven ball (takraw) by teams made up of two or three people on each side. Points are scored by hitting the ball above the net and into the court (about the size of a badminton court) as the opposing players attempt to "block".

Kicks, often performed mid-air at shoulder height, form the basis of the game. The word "sepak" is Malay (the game originated in Malaysia) for kick and 'takraw' means woven ball. In sepaktakraw, players are not allowed to use their hands. They can use the feet, legs, shoulders and head to keep the ball in play. Players routinely spike the ball, turning acrobatic somersault movements or bicycle kicks in mid-air to keep the ball in play.

In its early days, the idea of the game evolved by juggling a rattan ball in the air for as long as possible without using hands or arms. When the game was formalised, with opposing teams divided by a net, players developed the dazzling display of acrobatic twists, turns and body swerves that make the modern game a thrill to watch.

Did you know?

"In 1984, a Thai inventor revolutionised the sport with the introduction of a synthetic sepaktakraw ball to replace the traditional rattan ball. The new high-tech synthetic balls gave the game a much-needed boost, setting the stage for sepaktakraw to spread around the world."

Many people outside Asia are unfamiliar with this unique sport. The athleticism and speed of the game will take your breath away. Learn more about sepaktakraw here.

History »

Sepaktakraw developed in Malaysia nearly 500 years ago and the modern-day version is a southeast Asian speciality. Learn more about the origins of the game with our historical notes. Thailand won five out of the six gold medals at the last Asian Games and is likely to dominate again in Doha. Who else is in our medal winners list?

Sport in Thailand ... Sepaktakraw

Submitted by Steve on Tue, 12/12/2006 - 9:32pm. Bangkok Blog | Sport

Being the ignorant Westerner I am, before moving to Thailand I didn't really strongly link the country with any sports. I guess I had heard of Paradaron Srichapan, the Thai tennis player who made it to the world top ten, but other than that who is there? And what about team sports? The Olympics? Of course you can find various sports played in Thailand (there's even a Aussie Rules footy team, the Thailand Tigers, and national cricket competition), but what are the main sports in Thailand?

Well, the 15th Asian Games are currently on in Doha, Qatar, and that has seen an increase in interest in sport in Bangkok, especially since Thailand are ranked 5th overall with currently 43 medals. The medals have come in a mixture of sports including rowing, snooker, shooting, a world record and gold medal in womens weightlifting, a gold in mens 4x100 relay (they just won as I'm typing this) and the most successful ... Sepaktakraw.

Sepakta-what, I hear you ask. Sepaktakraw (or Sepak Takraw) is in a short description: volleyball, but using your feet. That is, a team has 3 hits to get the ball over the net before it touchs the ground, but they can only use their feet or heads (no hands or arms). I managed to catch a few games on the weekend while drinking beer at the Future Park Rangsit Shopping Centre (well, outside in the large Singha beer area they have every night). Now this is a real sport - great to watch and full of skill. It seems much faster and skillful than normal volleyball, and compared to beach volleyball ... well, lets face it, noone cares what happens in beach volleyball so long as the uniform restrictions are in place.

I saw the regu competition which had 3 players on either side, playing on a badminton court. The strikes that the players do to smash the ball over the net are amazing. A scissor style kick over their head. Just like the professional soccer (football) players try sometimes, except in Sepaktakraw the players don't miss the ball and they land on their feet. Would put Beckham to shame.

I was lucky to catch the two gold medal matches: a close, 3 setter match between Thailand and Vietnam in the womens, and a easy win in Thailad versus Malaysia in the mens regu. Thailand won both gold medals. Their dominance (also have a gold medal in men's team competition, with more finals to come) may have something to do with the fact the game originated in Thailand/Malaysia 500 years ago. So not only is it a great game to watch, it also helps when you are watching with a crowd of beer-drinkin' Thai's cheering for the best team in the world.
