DID YOU KNOW:

We all have learned that Sepak Takraw is the National Sport of the Philippines.  But this is not a native sport in the country. 
Etymology of Sepak Takraw- "Sepak" is the Malay word for kick and "takraw" is the Thai word for a woven ball, therefore sepak takraw quite literally means to kick ball. The choosing of this name for the sport was essentially a compromise between Malaysia and Thailand, the two powerhouse countries of the sport.
