CONCLUSION

SEPAK TAKRAW is not your every day run of the mill sport. This Sport seems to require an extremely high level of athleticism. SEPAK TAKRAW represents skill that may be found in soccer, gymnastics, or cheerleading. When played at a high skill level this game is phenomenal to observe as you see the athleticism required for this sport. SEPAK TAKRAW would be a sport that I would be willing to play in the future, but does not seem to be a sport that was designed for all ages and skill sets.
