International Kakis Volleyball Club

Why we are called International Kakis?

Kakis is a Malay word referring to two or a group of friends with the same interest. We used International Kakis for our team name because our players come from different countries and we build our friendship through playing volleyball. Our background, language and culture are very different but one very important thing in common is that we all love volleyball.

How we operate?

International Kakis Volleyball Sport Club is voluntarily managed by the club manager William Lai, indoor coach Samuel Wong (men team), Perry Mathew (women team), beach coach Pascale Rangoni (women beach volleyball), Koen Meijerink and Kelvin Yeo are running the Sunday Beach volleyball group and also don't forget our photographer Peter Ho . IK players are a bunch of volleyball dedicated die-hards who train and play under IK, we never pay any player to play for the club.
