On October 23, 2022, at Laguna Lang Co Golf Course, Hue Industrial College (HueIC) organized the “Swing for Students” (S4S) golf tournament. The event attracted over 60 amateur golfers from businesses, schools, and agencies across Thua Thien Hue, Da Nang, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, and other localities.

Accompanying HueIC in this tournament were generous sponsors:

  • Diamond Sponsors: Tien Thanh Investment – Architecture JSC and Hue Golf Club.
  • Gold Sponsors: Hanoi High-Tech Equipment Co., Ltd. and Thien Linh Trading Co., Ltd.
  • Silver Sponsor: Vietinbank – Thua Thien Hue Branch.
  • Bronze Sponsors: PVI Insurance Hue, Central Energy and Boiler JSC, and Hoang Quoc Co., Ltd.

Tournament Structure and Awards The tournament featured three divisions: two Men’s Divisions (A, B) and one Ladies’ Division, offering attractive awards including First, Second, and Third prizes for Groups A and B, and First Prize for the Ladies’ Group.

Technical prizes included:

  • Nearest to the Pin: At Hole 5 (Ladies) and Holes 8, 14 (Men).
  • Longest Drive: At Holes 3 and 18.
  • Hole-in-One Prizes: A Mercedes C200 at Hole 5 (sponsored by Tien Thanh Investment – Architecture JSC) and six prizes worth 100 million VND each at Holes 4, 14, and 19 (replacing Hole 11), sponsored by PVI Insurance Hue.

Purpose and Community Impact The tournament served as a sporting platform to strengthen ties between the college and enterprises, while simultaneously celebrating HueIC’s 123rd Establishment Anniversary (Sept 12, 1899), Vietnam Labor Skills Day (Oct 4), and Vietnam Entrepreneurs’ Day (Oct 13).

The Organizing Committee dedicated a portion of the sponsorship funds to award scholarships to 66 disadvantaged students excelling in their studies and to carry out community support activities in Phu Duong Commune, Hue City. Specific activities included repairing motorbikes, TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, and other household appliances. This was a deeply meaningful initiative to join hands with residents affected by the floods from October 14–16, 2022.

Future Outlook Participants praised the tournament as a resounding success, leaving a lasting positive impression, with many golfers expressing hopes for its return next year. Sponsors also committed to continuing their companionship with HueIC in supporting students and the community.

Following this success, the “Swing for Students” Golf Tournament is expected to become an annual event organized by HueIC. It aims to create a healthy sports playground and implement meaningful activities for the school, businesses, learners, and the community
