A new game

Sunday afternoon, part of team decided to go wander the streets of Hai Phong.
In park, we came across a group of adults playing a game we have seen from a distance at many schools. I believe it’s called da Cau. It looks like a cross between hacky sack and badminton. Using their feet, the participants kick the shuttlecock – kind of like hack sack. In the park, we witnessed a group of men playing a very competitive version with two individuals on each side of a badminton court. Very intriguing – and a game we have decided we want to try. (We have asked our translators to teach us how to play,)
