Check out Viet Celts Kids schedule for this week!

We've got 6 sessions open to boys and girls across Hanoi over the weekend and 1 special session just for girls on Sunday at 3pm.

All for the special price of 0VND, thanks to our volunteers generously donating their time and the Global Games Development Fund covering the costs of the pitches.

Special shoutout also to The Snug for supporting our Blue Dragon players and making sure they have the same access to tournaments that every other child has.
