Nong Hieng School Win Inaugural Sansara Cup

Nong Hieng School Win Inaugural Sansara Cup

The first ever Sansara Cup took place at the Hua Hin International School on Friday morning. Wang Bost and Nong Hieng joined the hosts for a 6 a side round robin tournament.

After six matches Nong Hieng were declared champions, winning all their matches. Hua Hin International School finished as runners up and Wang Bost came third.

The three schools are all located in close proximity to one another in the Black Mountain region but this was the first time they had all entered a tournament. The event was sponsored by Sansara and General Manager Hans Van Steertegem was on hand to present the trophies.

He was delighted to see the local schools come together to play in a football tournament for the first time ever.

“It was wonderful to see these children from completely different backgrounds all enjoying the sport of football and I thought the tournament had a great atmosphere. At Sansara we are committed to supporting local community projects like this and we are proud to have sponsored this fantastic initiative.”

Also in attendance was former England and Tottenham defender Gary Stevens. He was recently appointed head coach at the Black Mountain Hua Hin Football Academy and was impressed by the standard of football on display.

“We are all really grateful to Sansara to sponsoring this competition. They also sponsor ten players from Wang Bost and Nong Hieng School to train at the Black Mountain Hua Hin Football Academy and some of those players really shone at this tournament which was great to see.”
