The ANZAC Boot Camp returns to Vung Tau this weekend. As well as Hanoi.

Tomorrow the boys in Saigon will set off to Vung Tau for the 2013 ANZAC Boot Camp.

The ANZAC Boot Camp, which kicked off last year for the first time, announces that the season proper has well and truly commenced and the count down is on for the ANZAC Friendship Match which will be held on 27 April 2013 and played against the Jakarta Bintangs.

Meanwhile, Hanoi will also run it’s first Boot Camp.

Hanoi President, Dan Hopkins reports that,

“On Saturday, we will have the inaugural Hanoi ANZAC Boot Camp to officially get together to kick off the season. The day will kick off at 11am at the Oz embassy where we will have a range of fitness activities and a game of netball Vs the Oi’s. We will leave the embassy and do a small activity/obstacle course around Hanoi and will finish up at one of our many sponsors, Jaspas, for a beer or two to rehydrate at approx 3.30pm.

“This has been arranged to get everybody together of all fitness levels for a fun afternoon and to introduce the new guys to the Swannie culture.”

For a reminder of what the ANZAC Friendship Weekend is all about, have a look at last year’s documentary which contains a number of interviews with key people, including veterans.
