Mango Bay Phu Quoc, an eco-luxe resort recently featured on the prestigious British Condé Nast Traveller 2011, is set to organize the fourth annual football tournament for the expat community in Vietnam, on May 7, 2011.
This Mango Bay Vietnam's 'Champions League' will take place at Cua Can Stadium on the secluded Phu Quoc island. This year, it will hosts eight expat teams, competing for the title on brand new pitch for a bigger cup (in size only as it is meant to be a fun and relaxing weekend).
US$150 would be the registration fee per team of 10, including 1 goal keeper, 6 starting players and 3 substitutes.
Each player can enjoy a reduced rate of $12 per person for special BBQ night to either celebrate football expertise or drown your sorrow. Each non-player accompanying the team pays $15 for BBQ.
Ronan Le Bihan, Mango Bay's General Manager, is very excited about the event and enthuses, "we expect that this year, our football tournament will attract not only 'the usual suspects' from previous years but also newcomers from the expat community in Vietnam.
"I see it as one of the best ways to socialize and get to know each other better".
After the whole day of playing football, Mango Bay's spa overlooking the beach is a welcoming break for full body massage at $20.
To celebrate this event, Mango Bay is offering a special promotion of stay 3 nights, pay 2, with rooms and bungalows starting from $40 to $75.
Mango Bay, www.mangobayphuquoc.com, has 37 rooms and bungalows constructed using natural materials from the island.
