Takraw a.k.a. Volleyball/Soccer PDF Print E-mail
Games
Written by Bernie DeKoven   
Monday, 04 January 2010
Takraw - think of it as a kind of volleyball where you can't use your hands. Think of a volleyball as "spherical of one woven layer having 12 holes, 20 intersections. ...made of synthetic fiber or natural rattan. If it is made of rattan, it ...consist(s) of 9-11 strains. The circumference ...not ...less than 0.42 m and not more than 0.44 m (0.43 m to 0.45 m for women). The weight before play...not ...less than 170 gm and not more than 180 gm (150 gm to 160 gm for women)." Think of a team as a 'Regu', each consisting of three players...One of the three players ...at the back and ...called a 'Server (Tekong)'....The other two players ...in front, one on the left and the other on the right. The player on the left ...called a "Left Inside" and the player on the right ...called a 'Right Inside'" And the net is lower and the court smaller. And in addition to the referee there are two umpires and 6 "linesmen." Otherwise, it's pretty much identical to volleyball.

Chamball received its publc debut at the Come Out and Play festival in New York. "Outdoor Cham Ball," according to the description, "is a fast-paced physical game that blends tetherball, dodgeball, and martial arts." If you are of a Junkyardish mood, you can try to imagine exactly how such a game would be played. If not so much, see this.

kickball pitcher with two ballsMojo Kickball is, as they say, not kickball.

Just like kickball is not baseball.

It's kickball grown up. Kind of.

It's for people who are not of traditional kickball age, but who are young enough in spirit to want to play, and mature enough in spirit to want to play a game that's primarily for fun, a game everyone can play, in sum, a game very much in the tradition of Junkyard Sports.

three way basketball without a court

 

Oddly (or perhaps, predictably), some of the most exciting innovations in sports are not coming from athletes or physical educators, but from artists, like Tom Rusotti, through his Aesthletics Institute.
