This morning, two of our Rugby coach officer bring 27 kids from Aspeca orphanage to the Pochentong International Airport. Why ? Just to support and give positive energy to the 12 player, representing Cambodia, who flighted to Bangkok to participate to the Asian 7s tournament.
It was the first time for those kids to see how an airport looks like, and they were very proud an excited to do this wonderful surprise for the Koupreys, the national 7s team.
DUL Khemrin, one of our development officer is part of the squad, and we know that he will do his best to represent Kampuchea Balopp and all the kids who are dreaming, now, to participate in this kind of event when they will be older. VANAK Vireak, the team captain said that the team will do their best to represent Cambodia, and this gift from Kampuchea Balopp and Aspeca will help them during the game. He also told the kids that, if they continue to work hard on the field and at School, one day, they will have the chance to travel and discover the country thanks to rugby.
Here are some pictures !!
GO KOUPREYS !!!!!!
Ce matin, deux de nos agents de développement ont amené 27 enfants issus de l’orphelinat Aspeca a l’aeroport international de Pochentong. Pourquoi ? tout simplement pour faire une surprise a l’équipe nationale de rugby cambodgienne a 7, qui s’apprêtaient a s’envoler pour la Thailande, pour participer au tournoi d’Asie.
C’était la première fois pour ces enfants de voir a quoi ressemblait un aéroport, et ils étaient a la fois fiers et excites de faire cette chouette surprise aux Koupreys, nom donné aux joueurs de l’équipe cambodgienne.
DUL Khemrin, entraîneur de Kampuchea Balopp fait parti du groupe, et il sait que l’équipe fera de son mieux pour représenter le pays et apprécie a sa juste valeur un tel message de soutien. VANAK Vireak, le capitaine a parlé aux enfants en leur assurant que l’équipe ferait tout pour qu’ils soit fiers de leur parcours, tout en leur précisant qu’un jour, ce serait eux qui auraient peut être la chance de s’envoler vers de nouvelles contrées pour représenter le peuple khmer sur un terrain de rugby
Voici quelques photos!!

This week Julie Schaefer of Bribie Island, Queensland, Australia visited our office to drop off a gift. She brought with her some rugby balls graciously donated by her, her colleagues and family back in Australia. 
Julie found out about Kampuchea Balopp through our mutual friend and Kampuchea Balopp Fundraising Coordinator for Australia & New Zealand Anna-Maria Nugent. This was Julie’s eighth visit to Cambodia, and she attributes her numerous returns to « the [Cambodian] people. They’re really lovely. They’re really honest. People here [in Cambodia] are really resourceful. » She also enjoys the food and the shopping Phnom Penh has to offer.
Since our coaches were working with Sok Sabay, Julie got a chance to visit the kids as they were playing. Below are some photos from that practice.

The Good Men of Rugby project for 2013/14 has officially started and this year Kampuchea Balopp is taking part. We’re partnering with the Cambodian Federation of Rugby (CFR) to work on combating domestic violence and promote gender equality through sports. The Good Men Campaign is a series of projects sponsored by the Spanish NGO Paz y Desarrollo (PyD) done in cooperation with the Cambodian government. The entire campaign is about educating and promoting people on six points, which are:
- To Take Action To Stop Violence Against Women
- To Share Household Chores
- To Resolve Problems By Discussion
- To Being a Role Model in Promoting Equality Between Men and Women
- To Consensual Decision Making
- To Treating Males and Females Equally
The idea for the Good Men of Rugby project is that the CFR and KB work with men 15 years and older at high schools and university to promote these six points and use rugby to do so. The thing is that it’s not enough to simply say treat women equally, but to do so. We have to practice what we preach, which is why we’re not just targeting men – even if PyD is only concerned with the statistics regarding men – but working with and including women in our project.
For the Good Men of Rugby project we’re going to eight universities and eight high schools in Phnom Penh over the next year. We’ll return to each school and uni three times to teach them rugby and provide lessons around the six points of the campaign. We’ll also be holding the Respect Tournament in April of next year. To all of these events every student, male and female, will be invited and made welcome. As the project develops we’ll provide more updates so keep checking back, or sign up to the newsletter.
