From first matches to first wins, the launch of the Hua Hin Sports Academy has already shown how sports can unite children, spark confidence and create lasting memories.
Throughout September, training sessions were held every weekday after school. Warm-ups, stretches, dribbling drills and passing practice all built toward strengthening teamwork and skill. Practice matches kept the energy high and gave the boys a taste of competition in a supportive environment.
Mid-month, the U12 team played their very first competition match against other local academies. While they didn’t secure a win, the experience gave the boys an invaluable opportunity to test their skills under pressure and learn resilience. Later in the month, the academy joined a charity football event hosted by Thap Tai, where the boys celebrated an exciting victory in the U11 category. Beyond the scoreboard, the children walked away with pride, determination and a growing sense of community both on and off the field.
