The Vietnam Swans (wearing Sydney Swans’ jumpers), bursts out of the centre in the inaugural 2007 Indochina Cup (played as the Tri Nations at the time between Vietnam, Thailand and, making their first ever international appearance, the Lao Elephants )in Hanoi.

Next month, on 10 November, the 6th Annual Indochina Cup will be held in Hanoi, the birthplace of the Cup in 2007. Last week, the Word magazine, a platinum sponsor of the Swannies’ AFL Grand Final Parties in Hanoi and Saigon last month, reports below.

The Vietnam Swans Australian rules football club is gearing up to host the sixth Indochina Cup next month.

The event will bring together teams from Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and Laos for a day of sport, friendship and fun in a carnival like atmosphere. All are welcome, entry is free and food and drink will be available on the day inside My Dinh Stadium.

For those who’ve never seen Australian Rules Football in action, the Indochina Cup represents a great chance to catch a high quality competition, without all the Victoria Bitters.

The Indochina Cup will be taking place on Saturday Nov. 10. For more information, including sponsorship opportunities, contact vietnamswans@gmail.com or see www.thevietnamswans.com.
