Before basketball, before football, the ancient Maya had Pok-ta-pok.

More than just a game, Pok-ta-pok was a powerful part of Maya culture, tradition, and ceremonial life. Played with a heavy rubber ball that players had to keep in motion using their hips, this ancient sport showcased incredible skill, strength, and strategy.

Today, experiencing Pok-ta-pok in Belize is a chance to connect with a piece of the country`s rich Maya heritage. History really does have a way of keeping the game alive! #TravelBelize #Belize
