Viet Hoops Makes History Hosting The First Event Outside of Canada

by Joseph Le

Viet Hoops took the leap of faith in hosting their first All Vietnamese Basketball Tournament in the United States on Labour Day Weekend. With the tournament being hosted at Anteater Recreation Center located in Irvine, California Viet Hoops was successful in bringing together 12 Vietnamese teams from 8 different cities across North America in a memorable weekend. 

More than just basketball, this was an event that brought together many Vietnamese families and individuals who shared similar stories, upbringings, and challenges growing up in North America. With over 100 participants and guests in attendance this was the first time different groups of Vietnamese have come together for this special event.
