Okay, everyone. I think this article has a lot of promise, but to move forward we are going to need better sources. I can provide other sources, but they are all written in Thai. I am not sure if it is valid if I translate those and put them into English on a wiki article. Can anyone answer this question for me? It would also be great if there were other wikipedians who were fluent in Malay, Vietnamese, Tagalog, or any other language where its native country has a thriving takraw community. These people can help find other sources that are written in their language that can contribute to our article. The Thai Wikipedia also has an article on takraw, but hardly anything is written on it; our English version is better. Hopefully, that is something I can help develop on that website, too.

Hello everyone. Going through to add citations throughout the article. It seems like many of the references have only been put in the "External Links" section. FLYTHAI 02:21, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
I added a "rules and regulation" section for international competition. As this section grows, we may consider putting it in a separate article by itself and have a link to it while we sumamrize the main objectives of takraw in this article. FLYTHAI 02:21, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
I want to suggest that Hoop Takraw be put in a separate article by itself. Yes, there are some similarities with the moves and the ball, but really a totally different game. The objectives and goals are totally different. We can add Hoop takraw in a links section of Sepak Takraw. FLYTHAI 11:02, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Hello everyone!!! I am very excited to see a wiki article on one of my favorite sports. I made a small edit with regards to the term "Takraw" in Thai. The article had stated the term "Takraw" (ตะกร้อ) means either "ball" or "basket". This information may have been taken from this article http://www.tatnews.org/emagazine/2813.asp written by Shawn Kelley. I would agree with the majority of the article, but there are some minor discrepancies. In modern and current Thai society, the term "Takraw" is just simply the name of the sport. It by no means gives the meaning or connotation of the general term "ball" or "basket". To emphasize specificity, "luktakraw" (ลูกตะกร้อ) is used to name the ball used in Thai takraw - "luk" when added with a name of a sport is modifed to "ball". Also depending on context of Thai speech, "luk" may be dropped and the word "takraw" alone can be understood to mean a specific actual takraw rattan ball, rather any ball (basketball, golfball, etc) in general. As for the claim of takraw meaning "basket," the Thai term for "basket" is "takraa" (ตะกร้า), which can never be mistaken by the Thai ear for the different sounding "Takraw" (ตะกร้อ) - very different Thai vowels sounds. Now given the similar way baskets and luktakraws are tradionally hand woven in Thai culture, it may not be a too far-fetched idea that one may have influenced the other or may have even derived originally from the other. But in current Thai society, they have no meanings towards one another.

I watched a lot of Sepaktakraw at the Asian Games and just updated the scoring section with how it was handled at the Games. I don't know if that is standard scoring in other tournaments though. 89.211.33.250 11:04, 14 December 2006 (UTC) Gameswatcher

Information is a collective noun. Pluralisation of collective nouns is rarely used unless to denote multiple types.
Should this page be merged with that of Takraw? I don't see any difference between the two, and the Sepak Takraw page is better developed. Added on the takraw talk page on 4 Apr 2006 by User:70.177.176.222.
Does anyone have any info about the history of the rattan takraw ball itself? They are a really outstanding piece of geometric design (I've spent many hours studying them and mapping different other patterns on to them in texta) and I'm curious as to whether they predate western influences.
I'd be happy to add a paragraph to this article about the geometry of the ball, as I've analysed it, but I'd feel better knowing the historical side first.

I think it predates western influence. In Sejarah Melayu (Malay Annals) written in the 15th century the name of the game is written as "sepak raga", "sepak" = kick, "raga" usually means weaved (rattan) basket but it could mean weaved rattan ball in this context. The manuscript was written during the era of Malacca Sultanate, before the arrival of Portuguese. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.82.80.63 ( talk) 04:06, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
Hello everybody. How come the earliest history record in manuscript that has been written around 15th century in Malay Annals(Sejarah Melayu)about the sepak raga(the earliest name before changed to sepak takraw)did not written on this Sepak Takraw History article? Actually the Malay Annals(Sejarah Melayu) has been written on Malacca's Sultanate. The original name for Sejarah Melayu is Hikayat Melayu. If someone wants to know about it, please check it out from the Malay historian.
The Malay manuscript record for Sepak Raga(Sepak Takraw) even more earlier than the mural on the wall in Thailand. This is because the game of Sepak Raga(the name before changed to Sepak Takraw)was created on the era of Malacca's Sultanate. Actually Malacca's Sultanate included Southern Thailand, West Malaysia and almost all Sumatera land.
Probably the game entered the Siamese by Southern Thai Malays.

Thanks for your concern. I've edited the history section, will include the reference soon. It was totally biased and historically inaccurate. The one who wrote that intentionally denied any historical relation of the game with Malay history by this statement "Later in 1935, the game was first played differently in the state of Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia during the Silver Jubilee celebration of SMK King George V.[3]". As the game have just played by the Malays in 1935!!!, totally ridiculous. Orhanghazi ( talk) 15:03, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
I'm not sure if it is appropriate, but The Onion News Network has a marvelous ESPN style story on Sepak Takraw— Ngyuen Thi Buch Thuy: 'Just Give Me The Damn Sepak Takraw Ball'—that is hilarious just because it is done completely straight. (Obviously somebody on their staff is a great fan.)
The relevance of this is, that this might well be the first time many Americans even hear about Sepak Takraw. The topic was obviously picked just because it is so utterly foreign to their normal audience while still being a all-in-all fairly conventional sport based on elements that just about everybody is familiar with. I personally had never heard about Sepak Takraw before watching the video, but I found the images of the sport fascinating enough to go and look it up and do some research. I expect others to do the same, so including the link to the video in the External links section might be useful. --j ( talk) 09:28, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

The article needs to explain what is a "regu" and "doubles regu" tournament as can be seen in Sepak takraw at the 2010 Asian Games for example. I there is also a ST game played by two players in each team, what is that called? ќמшמφטтгמ torque 09:23, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

More evidence say Sepak Takraw is originated from the Malay Peninsula, the style of this sport change when the British colonial era in the strait states in Malay Peninsula, can be seen the rules and style of this game similar to badminton, a very popular sport among the English colonists in India, while Thailand and Indonesia are not under the British colonial
I find it shameful that there isn't a single mention of Chinese cuju, Japanese kemari, and various other related sports. Sports historians agree that takraw was clearly derived from Chinese cuju, and spread to the various Southeast Asian countries where it exists today. This article, however, simply implies that the sport was created in Malaysia and then spread from there. One of the biggest mistakes that historians and students of history ever make is to assume that the earliest known evidence of something indicates a dispersive origin. I find it extremely hard to believe that takraw in Malaysia predates the sport in neighbouring countries by any significant length of time. Morinae ( talk) 10:14, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
