Not only football

Mr. Cong Vinh, the president of NHG football had a talk with more than 500 students of the International Schools of North America (SNA). He supposed that there is a link between playing a sport and personality formation. "When we lose, how do we face failure? Sometimes you may get angry but sometimes you have to really calm down.

Through the ball, we see what is the true value of ourselves. Approaching different personalities from different ages, we will understand more about sharing, team solidarity and how to control our behaviour in a game”, said Vinh.
