Teams Descriptif:
BAYON
WANDERERS FC (Cambodia)  |
 |
|
Country: Cambodia
City: Phnom Penh
Team Color: Yellow/Black
Captain: Billy
Players: International |
Bayon Wanderers FC, Runner-up of the Plate 2004 Phuket Soccer
7s. The impressive 12th century Angkorian “Bayon”
Temple lends its name to this impressive team. The strength
of the Angkorian Empire is reflected in the depth of the squad’s
character, and the beauty and elegance of the temples is reflected
in the grace with which they take to the field. Similarly,
the horrific brutality of the ancient Khmer kings is clearly
evident in their violent and erratic behaviour on the pitch. |

BOMBAY GYMKHANA (India)  |
|
|
Country: India
City: Numbai
Team Color: Yellow/Black
Captain: Hashim D’Souza / Sanjeev Saran Mehra
Players: Indian |
Having put in an outstanding performance in the bars & clubs in February 2009, the boys from Bombay Gymkhana now return for their 2nd visit to Phuket with the hope of taking their ‘off the field’ form onto the pitch. Key players (pun intended) to watch out for are 'looking 4 love' Lodha & our slow yet amazingly quick handed keeper Singh. Keep an eye on the next Indian Gary Neville in defence, Bhardwaj. Malik & Siganporia will add the guts & glory in midfield and will also be a sound bet for a red card at some point so please don’t make them angry by tackling them. Leading by example will be veteran Rahul Raichand & his commander-in–chief Hashim D’Souza who will encourage the troops to work hard to chase the ball around under the blazing sun and then work even harder at chasing the skirt around Bangla Road at night. 2009 Spicy Soccer 7s, Plate Champions Cup, Open |

BRITISH FOOTBALL CLUB TOKYO (Japan)  |
 |
 |
Country: Japan
City: Tokyo
Team Color: Red and White
Captain: James Morson
Players: British, Japanese... mostly |
BFC is one of Tokyo's leading expat teams playing in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolis League.
The club was formed more than 30 years ago and now has two teams and over a 100 active (and less-active) members. Winning back to back championships in 07 and 08 was clearly a bit much for the BFC though as last season they slipped to third in the standings. With a few new signings over the Summer though they look to be back on track after a strong start to the new season. The Phuket teams are made up of current members and OBs (flying in from as a far afield as Japan (obviously), Malaysia, China, Australia and the UK).
You can be sure the emphasis will be firmly on what goes on after dark as well as the football as we will also be celebrating Brian 'the engine' Doyle's last cry for freedom before his Las Vegas wedding the following weekend.....

Last year most of our open team didn't make it over due to Bangkok Airport being closed but nevertheless the 'older' boys who did arrive made it to the Semi-finals despite playing in 2 competitions! This year we are hoping to have some of the younger lads to help out and go 'all the way'. As you can see from our picture, we have some young fit players, unfortunately they are all staying in Tokyo as they don't do enough drinking and debauchery. We're only bringing the die hard 'Party Animals' who'll march to the sound of 'The Machine' and join the Krauts down Bang-la road. 'Party on Garth! |

HANOI DRINK TEAM (Vietnam) 
|
 |
 |
Country: Vietnam
City: Hanoi
Team Color: Light blue and white
Captain: Stephane
Players: French, English, Italien, USA |
This year the Hanoi Drink team has decided, for the first time ever, to be part of the 2 back to back tournaments organized in Phuket… which means 2 extra days of football and many extra nights of entertainment!
Some of our old glories will leave the squad with tears in their eyes after the Andaman 7s (masters category) and some of our young guns will join the group with smiles on their faces for the Phuket 7s (open category).
They will probably bring us some more skills and energy on the pitch but will certainly show less composure and experience at the bar! |

HOLLANDSE FC (Singapore)  |
 |
 |
Country: Singapore
City: Singapore
Team Color: Orange shirt, white shorts, light blue socks.
Captain: Ard Huisman / Remco Broekman
Players: Dutch
|
The Hollandse FC was founded in 1974 and is since then playing in the Cosmoleague.
Most players from the team are from Dutch origin and try to keep the famous "Total Football"
alive this is harder than most people think especially with the strong teams in our league.
So we have changed our game a bit and choose to go for the "third half" this was a wise
decision from the management because we are still on beaten for the third year running.
Let the best become second and the Dutch win.

KRAUTS FC (China) |
 |
 |
Country: China
City: Shanghai
eam Color: White / Black
Captain: Olaf / Marcus Players: German and other friends around the world
|
After loosing the final once again, there were no discussions about attending the Phuket tournament also in 2009. Already 124 seconds after our unlucky loss against the Japanese team Tokyo Hibs our preparation phase for this year tournament began and we kept on till now. Attending beerfestivals, carnival parties and winning the prestigious Far East Tournament in Bangkok as well as achieving the promotion to Shanghai´s Premier League were just marginal notes on our way to take revenge. We luckily could keep our team structure together by having alcohol addicts, sex maniacs and wannabe-Ballacks in our team who are all highly motivated taking over the victory on- and offside the pitch. Furthermore we can count on our beloved friends around the world, who will specially join us for the tournament like Steve and Manu. The revenge is ours! Shanghai Krauts. |

SINGAPORE NORD (Singapore) |
 |
 |
Country: Singapore
City: Singapore
Team Color: Red
Captain: Sacha / Patrick
Players: Swiss + |
Once-mighty "Singapore Nord"-- the Swissies won five national college titles between 1953 and 1964 -- took quite a fall. During the 1990s, "Singapore Nord" set a record that might stand forever, losing 80 straight games, a losing streak that nearly doubles the second-longest streak in the league -- "Chicken Kings" 44-game skein. Their worst year might have been 1991 -- they scored only 3 points all season, while giving up an average of 7 goals a game. After the Swissies ended their streak by beating "Long Johns" 3-2, coach Hans-Rudolf Moser said, "When I woke up this morning, I knew it was a special day." |

WEMBEY DOWNS (Australia) |
|
|
Country: Australia
City: Perth / Sydney
Team Color: Red
Captain: Mike and Rainer
Players: Australian |
Aussie football at its most bizarre, a delicate mix of boundless enthusiasm, dedication to the cause and pointless optimism all wrapped up in a mission to shrug off through post Soi crocodile burry eyes and foggy minds to march boldly onto any pitch. A Perth/Sydney combination to grace any tournament with silky skills a plenty and a passion for victory that invariably results in a second or two of disappointment should we fail before reminding ourselves that any early exit means more drinking time. Our club motto...”She’ll be right mate, as long as there’s a Singha at the bar”. After season upon season of mediocrity we will be in Blue this year as Red clashes with our post-booze complexion and we blame the distress this has caused on our previous failures to land silverware. A dark horse for competition glory perhaps, as long as the competition involves nails, a hammer and a log (and is nowhere near a football pitch). Take us lightly at your peril because every now and then, we forget that there is drinking to be done and managed to send the ball in the general direction it is meant to go. |
