Planning for my next big overseas tourney went into full swing this week . The Land Of Smiles Tournament is in Bangkok, Thailand from October 26-29 . This is a PARTY tournament , we are talking all nighters and then trying to play LOL ! Anybody that likes to travel for hockey tournaments has to go to this one at some point in their lives .
I have been trying to go to this tournament from the day i found out about it way back in 2005 ... Yes i have skated on the ice there but it was just a scrimmage with some locals and some of the Farangs . I have been invited by a few teams to go out there but have never been able to work things out since i have been taking long trips through Europe the last couple years .... this year i return to Asia.
Originally i thought Rainer was going to enter his team but it looks like he isn`t so we are in search for a team ...Today i was contacted by the Hackers run by Robert Holtet . We might have found a team .... if you read my blogs leading up to Hawaii you will know that i was officially on 4 rosters prior to gametime , 1)Augsburg team from Germany 2) Rejects team from Hawaii 3) PLT Hockey from San Diego and finally ECG Hockey from LA .... PLT basically joined with ECG to form team but went under ECG name gladly :) thanks again Tim and John.
So in a dream world we will all sign up for the Hackers ...all of us meaning Rainer , Tim , Vooch and myself and we can start planning our beach holiday for after the tourney . I know i WILL be going to KL before BKK to play some hockey with some Ghetto Malaysians ... practising with the Malaysian National Team would be a thrill ...
If you are interested in joining us to Bangkok let me know , i am pretty sure the Hackers will put in an A & C division team if they get enough skaters ... the more the merrier and trust me this is one you won`t want to miss ;)
