Sepak Takraw

 Sepak Takraw, also spelled as Sepaktakraw, also nicknamed volleyball, is a team sport played with synthetic plastic or rattan balls between two teams consisting of two to four players on a court that resembles a badminton court. The sport has similarities to different volleyball but from a similar football game in the use of a cane ball and only allows players to use their feet, knees, shoulders, chest and head to touch the ball.

  The modern version of Sepak Takraw was first introduced, developed and standardized in 1960, when officials from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Myanmar met in Kuala Lumpur to agree on both general rules for the sport and the name. Previously, it was unofficially known as "Sepak Raga Jaring", which was first exhibited in Penang in 1945. The sport was later introduced in the 1965 Southeast Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur as a medal event. Sepak Takraw is considered the national sport of Malaysia.
