We used to play a game like this, soccer volleyball, and soccer tennis all the time when my team would practice over the summer near tennis or volleyball courts. Really good workout, and tons of fun too.

Wow! that is some great kicking. Is this a Thai sport?

Sepak Takraw's native to Southeast Asia, but the countries who regulary frequents the finals are Thailand and Malaysia. I've been trying to find a better video ever since I joined the Sports Sift, but have been unable to. The sport's pretty common throughout the provinces of Thailand. I wish I could, it's a very fast, breathtaking sport, and very engrossing for fans because casual taunting is allowed during the game. The taunting really gets fans riled up and into the game

Me? I'm too afraid of getting hurt to even try to jump kick a ball I throw into the air myself. Makes me feel ashamed everytime I see people playing it on concrete basketball fields.

I almost posted this clip yesterday from the 10 sports you never played in gym class blog. Great stuff.

damn slow motion. it makes my head hurt.
