Paul King, the manager at True Arena Hua Hin Sports Club, is proud to be supporting grass roots youth football in Hua Hin,
“We want children to have access to the fantastic facilities we have here at True Arena and hope this will be the first of many youth competitions and tournaments this year.

Who knows, maybe one day one of these players will go on to represent the national team?”
Former England international, Gary Stevens, is the head coach at Black Mountain and is excited to see competitive football get underway in 2022,
“It has been a very uncertain time with Covid-19 and lots of postponements and cancellations. But young players need to play and these tournaments give them the opportunity to do exactly that. When I was a child we had to play on some terrible pitches and the children are really lucky to have access to the world class playing surfaces at True Arena.”
