oh, my.

We really can't capture their athletic ability in pictures, but we have to at least include a few. This is caneball (or takraw or kball), which is a mix of soccer and volleyball. You use your feet and head similar to soccer, but you play over a net with the three-hit pattern of volleyball. It's absolutely incredible to watch them.
This was the tournament for Thanksgiving Day competitions. As you see the pictures, just keep in mind they all landed on their feet and kept playing like it was completely natural to move like that.




Can you see his foot in this one? It's directly above his head.
