Material: Plastic Weight: Approx. 180g Circumference: Approx. 0.43m This is generally considered a men's size.

The word "sepak takraw" is a compound word of two: "sepak" means "to kick" in Malay, and "takraw" means "(woven rattan) ball" in Thai. As the name suggests, it is a game similar to volleyball, where players use their feet, thighs, or heads to return a ball across a net to the opponent's court.

While intended for sepak takraw matches and practice, it can also be used as a children's toy or a ball for pet dogs. It can even be used as a substitute for the traditional Japanese kemari game from the Heian period.

The ball is a spherical shape woven from plastic, with 12 holes and 20 intersections. The circumference of the ball is 0.42m to 0.44m for men's sizes and 0.41m to 0.43m for women's sizes. The weight is 170g-180g for men and 150g-160g for women. Many Thai Muay Thai fighters and soccer players play sepak takraw, and some Japanese kickboxers also incorporate it into their training. It's also a recommended sport for those who practice karate or taekwondo. Material: Plastic Weight: Approx. 180g Circumference: Approx. 0.43m This is generally considered a men's size.
