WHAT IS SEPAK TAKRAW/KATO?

Sepak Takraw or Kato is a traditional Southeast Asian sport that mostly resembles volleyball but requires players to use only their feet, knees, head, and chest, much like soccer. The ball is roughly 5 1/2” in diameter and woven rattan (traditionally) or synthetic rubber. Typically, two teams of three players each, play on a 20’ x 44’ court separated by a 5’ high net. An official match is won by the best of 3 games each played to 21 points.
