What is the name of the Thai sport where they kick the ball around in the air, sometimes over a net and sometimes up into a net that hangs above them? The English name?
Thanks

Net takraw, or sepak takraw is played similarly to volleyball, but with the feet. My husband played it when I first met him, when he was young and limber. Its a great game to watch with some incredible feats of athletic ability. My husband was good at spiking the ball across the net. In this manner (but this is not him, he's a bit old for it now
 ): Here is some video from Google video |
