Chinlone : ウィキペディア英語版
Chinlone

Chinlone (, , also known as caneball) is the traditional sport of Burma (Myanmar). Chinlone is a combination of sport and dance, a team sport with no opposing team. In essence chinlone is non-competitive. The focus is not on winning or losing, but how beautifully one plays the game.
==Overview==

A team of six players pass the ball back and forth with their feet, knees and heads as they walk around a circle. One player goes into the center to solo, creating a dance of various moves strung together. The soloist is supported by the other players who try to pass the ball back with one kick. When the ball drops to the ground it is dead, and the play starts again.
Chinlone means "basket-rounded or rounded basket " in Burmese. The ball is woven from rattan, and makes a distinctive clicking sound when kicked that is part of the aesthetic of the game. Players use six points of contact with the ball: the top of the toes, the inner and outer sides of the foot, the sole, the heel, and the knee. The game is played barefoot or in chinlone shoes that allow the players to feel the ball and the ground as directly as possible. The typical playing circle is in diameter. The ideal playing surface is dry, hard packed dirt, but almost any flat surface will do.
Chinlone is over 1,500 years old and was once played for Burma royalty. Over the centuries, players have developed more than 200 different ways of kicking the ball. Many of the moves are similar to those of Burma dance and martial art. Some of the most difficult strokes are done behind the back without seeing the ball as it is kicked. Form is all important in chinlone: there is a correct way to position the hands, arms, torso, and head during the moves. A move is considered to have been done well only if the form is good.
Burma is a predominantly Buddhist country, and chinlone games are a featured part of the many Buddhist festivals that take place during the year. The largest of these festivals goes on for more than a month with up to a thousand teams. An announcer calls out the names of the moves and entertains the audience with clever wordplay. Live music from a traditional orchestra inspires the players and shapes the style and rhythm of their play. The players play in time to the music and the musicians accent the kicks.
Both men and women play chinlone, often on the same team. Adults and children can play on the same team, and it is not unusual to see elders in their 80s playing.
In addition to the team style of chinlone, which is called "wein chin" or circle kick, there is also a solo performance style called "tapandaing". This solo style is only performed by women.
Chinlone is one of a family of football games played throughout the world. It is related to similar games in Southeast Asia known as ''takraw'' in Thailand, ''sepak raga'' in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia, ''sipa'' in the Philippines, ''kator'' in Laos and ''da cau'' in Vietnam. A competitive variation of the game played over a net, called ''sepak takraw'' was developed in Malaysia in the 1940s. The solo form of chinlone is also similar to keepie uppie, played with a standard football.
The origins of chinlone may be related to the ancient Chinese game of ''cuju or tsu chu'', which is acknowledged by FIFA as being the oldest form of soccer. A similar game is also played in Japan where it is known as ''kemari''. Chinlone is also related to the family of sports played by kicking a shuttlecock, known as ''jianzi'' in China and Taiwan, and ''jegichagi'' in Korea. And there is some evidence to suggest that a variation of these games traveled across the Bering Straits and influenced Native Americans, who also played a variety of games keeping a ball up with the feet. These games are thought to be the origin of footbag, also known as hacky sack.
