Paedsipsam are pleased to announce we have successfully entered a sponsorship agreement with Petaraya gym in Surin, Thailand. Petaraya gym is located Sirikhohrabbum in Surin, the next village to Buakaw’s Banchamek gym in Surin.

Currently, Paedsipsam’s main aim is to provide better facilities to the children who train at the gym. We’re currently trying to to source pads, bags and running shoes for the children who train at the gym. Kru Som has devoted his time and effort to training the children in the village for years. He does this in his own time and doesn’t charge any of the families for training. Som is what Muay Thai is in Issan, he loves to see the progression in the children and the art of Muay Thai.

The gym currently has 4 fighters who have had over 140 fights between them. Mon (Lekpet Petaraya), Top (Tawan Petaraya), Ming (Petpayu Arya) and Petsirichai Petaraya. The children fight on a regular basis and we aim to give them a platform to post their training videos and fight videos.

At the moment we are keen to hear from businesses in Thailand and outwith Thailand for short sponsorship, t-shirt sponsorship as very small amounts of money will go along way for these kids. If you’d be interested in sponsoring any of the fighters please comment on this post and let us know. We’ll bring you some training and fight updates very soon.

This is what some might say a spit and sawdust Muay Thai… We like to say this is grassroots Muay Thai and hopefully Paedsipsam can give you an insight to this. Please like, share and retweet this post!!!

Chok Dee all the children at Petaraya!!
