For the first time under the tournament, a Fairplay Camp was held right before the final round with many exciting activities. During the Fairplay Camp, all children players have had a unique opportunity to interact, learn and share with each other a true football spirit in a joyful and friendly atmosphere. They also had a chance to talk to the Golden Ball 2015 Award Winner Nguyen Anh Duc and the Olympic 2016 Gold Medalist Hoang Xuan Vinh.

Speaking at Fairplay Camp on October 15, CEO Kim said the company was delighted by the enthusiastic spirit of the children participated in this year's tournament. “They have really amazed us by exciting football matches and fairness playing in a rare spirit of fellowship. This is proof to the success of the fourth ‘Lotteria Challenge Cup’ themed ‘Let's play fair’ which aims at becoming an educational playground of true sportsmanship, honesty and sense of discipline for children,” he said.

During the past years, Lotteria Challenge Cup has become a place where young football talents are supported such as through the construction of a mini stadium by Lotteria in Hanoi last year. This year, with the ‘Fairplay’ theme throughout the tournament and exciting activities on the sidelines, ‘Lotteria Challenge Cup’ remains a useful playground for Vietnamese kids and their parents as well as football lovers around the country.
