The Hanoi Gaelic Championships, September 2010

Hanoi President of the Vietnam Swans, Mark “Willy” Williams reports on last weekend’s Gaelic Championships in Hanoi.

Last Saturday saw the Viet Celts host the Gaelic Hanoi 1000 Tri-tournament. The main purpose was for the Viet Celt boys to get in some match practice before their Asian Champs next weekend in Hong Kong.

Two keenly contested games were played in which the Swannies won one. It was awesome to see some new and old Swannies faces including a solid game down back by Dan Lucardie. Some ‘slightly’ younger running power also played well namely in Jamie, Nick, Nathan, Sean, and Shannon, although, best on ground without doubt goes to Fergo who provided plenty of solid entertaining play.

Congrats go to Jim Kiernan the Viet Celts President for organising an outstanding afternoon of Gaelic.
