Sukaneka is a variety of sports that is usually carried out by a community during family days, team-building events, and similar occasions (Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka, 2017).
Participants carry a ping pong ball on spoon held in their mouth, trying to reach the finish line without dropping the ball.
Participants hop to the finish line while inside a sack.
Participants search for candies hidden in a bowl of flour using only their mouths.
Participants walk around chairs placed in a circle and must find a chair to sit when the music stops. One chair is removed each round until one person remains.
Teams use a sponge to transfer water from a bucket to a bottle, aiming to fill it up the fastest.
