About the Event
Fielding teams in the Mixed Under 12s, Boys Under 14s and the Open Mens group, the Vagabonds are sure to feature as a powerhouse throughout the competition. The open mens are previous winners of the tournament, whilst the Academy team showed their potential winning first place in the 2022 Krabi Cup.
The Vagabonds Open Mens team will feature a strong squad with a mixture of fast footed youth and hard running experience. Spectators should keep an eye out for key performances from regular stand outs Dan Ashburn and Paul Rothwell as well as the up and coming Ben Williams and young flyer Daniil Komandir. From the Academy teams expect a strong first Thailand tournament from Arthur Pinel, formerly from Singapore Irish Rugby Club and the electrifying Asia Center Foundation prodigy Jirasak (Sun) Panoi.
Spectators are welcome and encouraged with the stadium within 1 hours drive from Phuket.
A special thank you to all of the Vagabonds and Vagabonds Academy sponsors, in particular Phukets Finest Properties as well as Asia Center Foundation, OG Fightwear and Tarn Tara Spa for assisting in sending the junior teams to compete in this Thailand Rugby Union official tournament.
First and second placed teams in the Southern Divisions will be invited to compete in the National 7s tournament in the coming weeks.
Let's go Vagabonds!
