Mercy Boys Win Football Tournament

Last week our Mercy Boys showed us what it means to play together as family. Eleven Mercy Boys joined in a round-robin football tournament at the New International School of Bangkok, where they put on a clinic in team-playing and scoring, winning three games and losing two, while tallying the highest number of goals of all five participating teams. The standout stars for the Mercy Boys: Tum earned the “Golden Ball” Trophy for most goals scored while our goalie, Boat, kept us in every game throughout the action. Having played together as Mercy boys for over 10 years, Tum and Boat communicate with each other on the field with something akin to telepathy. A second Mercy team of younger boys played in the Pee Wee round-robin tournament. Although they didn’t win, they had just as much fun. Photos below, Tum earns the “Golden Ball” trophy.
