So what is going on around here and where does it happen? This section is for discussion on local events, festivals, and holidays as well as activities and things to do.
Three full minibuses made a pre-dawn journey from Hua Hin to meet with the remainder of the team who had travelled to Bangkok the previous night to compete in the 10-team Bangkok Post Cup at Harrow International School in the north of the capital. The early start resulted in sluggish starts for the Under 11 and Under 13 teams, though the very young Under 9s, consisting mainly of the Under 7 and Under 8 team, excelled with a tremendous 3 – 0 in their first game and the Under 15s fought out a gutsy 2 – 2 draw.
A healthy lunch and some ‘hairdryer treatment’ from the coaches resulted in a much-improved showing in the afternoon matches with the Under 9s and Under 13s eventually progressing from their group, the Under 9s eventually losing in the Plate semi-final, whilst the Under 13s downed Arsenal 2 – 0 on their way to the Plate final against the Japanese Infinito team, which they unfortunately lost 1 – 0 in an even contest.
It was indeed a long and tiring day for all players – who all played at least 5 matches – coaches and supporters, but well done for staying, battling and cheering until the end. Dusit Thani Hua Hin Football Academy would like to thank everyone who made the long trip for your great efforts. We always knew this tournament would be a step up in class and present difficult challenges. Results, good and bad, showed the progress made and the work still to be done.
The professional approach!

Dusit Thani Hua Hin Football Academy Player of the Tournament at the Bangkok Post Cup, was 7-year-old Daniel Ripatti. Remember the name, because Daniel is still a few months shy of his 8th birthday, but on Saturday he notched 3 goals and added 1 assist in just 5 games for the Under 9 team.

Dusit Thani Hua Hin Football Academy were delighted to once again welcome Stanley Menzo, the legendary Dutch goalkeeper, to the team's hotel and football academy recently. Stanley, who represented the Dutch national team at a World Cup and a European Championship, also made over 300 appearances for Ajax Amsterdam, picking up a UEFA Cup and UEFA Cup Winners Cup during that time.

A little pizza at the training ground now and again is definitely something to look forward to, as long as it's eaten in moderation
Last week was talented little Daniel's 8th birthday:
So as is becoming traditional on such occasions it was pizzas all round from the hotel's San Marco Italian Restaurant:
We hope you had a great day Daniel!
