Auskicks on in Hanoi

Willy's troops in Hanoi are dominating on the Auskick front

It’s been some time since we have heard publicly from, father-to-be, Willy in Hanoi. But that’s because he’s been flat chat on the Auskick front!

Willy reports that the Auskick program at the Hanoi International School has been “unbelievable to say the least (with) 20 plus kiddies each Thursday arvo and they absolutely love it.”

In the photo on the left, everyone is watching “new comer, Roy Swaysland have a dob. He has shown remarkable progress since joining the Auskick program in the last 5 weeks.”

In the photo on the right, Australian Embassy staff look on while Mundy Francis lines up for a goal. Willy says that Mundy has been “a champ all the way through having demonstrated unbelievable progress. He has been involved with every aus-kick session from the very start – well over a year now!!”

Willy and the Vietnam Swans are working together with the Australian Embassy’s Fun Australia program. Students, male and female, aged betwen 16 and 21 will attend special Auskick sessions from five local high schools. The sessions will be held on:

  • 24 October – Water Resources University Football Field
  • 7 November – The UN International School (UNIS)
  • 21 November – The UN International School (UNIS)

Nguyen Manh Hoang will assist with the program. Hoang lived in Australia for seven years and, among other things, played a considerable amount of footy.

If you would like to know more about the Vietnam Swans Auskick program in Hanoi, email Willy.

    Willy,
    It’s great to read about you on a newspaper and on Internet. You’re famous :) :)

    • Dear Ms Trang
      It is great to read about Willy in the newspaper for a change. Normally, on this website, we’re only reading he’s never ending stream of comments (which incidentally, did get Miss Australia 2008 to respond on one occasion).
      No doubt about it, he’s doing a top job up there in Hanoi with the Auskick.
      And, incidentally, welcome to the Vietnam Swans website!
      Regards
      “The Editor”
