For the second year in a row we were lucky enough to have a visit from the Valkyries rugby club in Singapore. They were the first girls rugby club established there, and KB organised a mini tournament on the 11th of November involving girls from 7 to 17 years old who are under the KB program to play against the visiting club. It was a full morning of rugby and four trophies were given away at the end. The visiting group had just enough time to go back to their hotel for lunch and a swim before flying back to Singapore that evening. We thank the Valkyries for their support of KB and Cambodian girls rugby, and we look forward to welcoming them again next year!

On the 11th of June, KB again welcomed more than 450 children from our NGO and school partners for our last KB DAY of the school year before the summer holidays. The theme of the day was social inclusion as the children were mixed into different teams ranging from Under 9 up to U15 – great for sharing and making new friends! We also started the morning with a Cecifoot game between Krousar Thmey Kompong Chnam and Krousar Themy Phnom Penh. Cecifoot is a game inspired by football that was created in France in 1987 for blind and visually impaired players. There is a bell inside the ball to allow the players to hear where the ball is, and bars are beaten against the goalposts to signal where the goals are. This is the first time that an exhibition game of Cecifoot has been played in Cambodia, and the adults and children watching were all inspired and entertained by the energetic and fast-moving match between the Krousar Thmey teams. Thank you to the volunteers and our sponsors and supporters – UNICEF, Australian Aid, Krousar Thmey, Naga Clinic, and Hagar Catering.

KB were very lucky to enter both comps – the 10’s at the start of the year and the 7’s near the end. For the 7’s, KB entered the tournament with 10 young players from our program who are from PSE – Pour un Sourire d’Enfant – Cambodia and Toutes à l’école. Thank you very much to David Adamson and the Referee’s Committee for helping us fund our participation in this tournament. It was a good learning experience for the girls and they finished up with 2 wins and 4 losses.
