Sepak raga (Minangkabau: sipak rago) is a traditional Indonesian and Malaysian sport, developed in the Nusantara Archipelago. This game is related to the modern sepak takraw. Similar games include footbag net, footvolley, bossaball and jianzi.
This game is played by five to ten people by forming a circle in an open field, where the sports ball is played with the feet and certain techniques so that the ball moves from one player to another without falling to the ground. The raga ball is made from young coconut leaves or rattan bark which is woven by hand. The sport requires speed, agility and ball control.
The tradition of sepak raga is found in various regions in Nusantara archipelago, including West Sumatra: sipak rago; Riau and North Sumatra: rago tinggi; Java: sepak tengkong; Central Kalimantan: sepak sawut ; Sulawesi: paraga. It is also found in the Malay Peninsula region, including Johor, Penang and Pahang.
