Attending the ceremony were Mr. Jean Francois Schmitz - Global Business Director of Aramith & Simonis brand, Mr. Nguyen Hoang Nhat - representative of RA billiards Company Limited, exclusive distributor of Aramith & Simonis brand in Vietnam, athlete Nguyen Anh Tuan, athlete Bui Truong An.
In recent years, Vietnamese billiards pool has made great strides in affirming its position in the international arena. Especially in the past 2 years, Vietnamese billiards pool has had international tournaments such as Hanoi 9-ball Open Championship 2023 & 2024, Peri 9 ball Open 2023 & 2024. Player Nguyen Anh Tuan won 8 gold medals at the National Championship, 4 gold medals at the National Sports Festival, 1 silver medal, 3 bronze medals at the SEA Games, even more special, when this player is making silent contributions to promote the pool movement in Vietnam by sponsoring more than 20 young athletes, opening training classes with more than 500 students in addition to sponsoring dozens of large and small tournaments during the year.
Bui Truong An is famous for being the youngest ethnic minority athlete to reach the professional level in billiards. Owning 14 billiards clubs across the country, Truong An has become an idol for young people with his orientation for them to experience their passion in the most professional and civilized way.
With 2 faces having a profound influence on the billiards movement nationwide, that is the reason why Aramith & Simonis chose Anh Tuan and Truong An to become brand representatives for this world's leading billiards ball and felt manufacturer.
Sharing about this decision, Mr. Jean Francois Schmitz - Global Business Director of Aramith & Simonis brand said: "This is a process of research and understanding the Asian market in general and Vietnam in particular, before coming to the final decision to sign a contract with these two players. Aramith & Simonis hopes to further promote the brand to Vietnamese billiards fans, further promoting the movement in Vietnam"
This is a great honor for the Vietnamese billiards scene, when Aramith & Simonis highly appreciates the development potential, from young talents to upgrading the player experience. Surprisingly, these are the first 2 Pool athletes in Asia to be sponsored by Aramith & Simonis.
Billiard player Nguyen Anh Tuan could not hide his joy: "When I received the offer from Aramith & Simonis, I was really surprised. This is a great honor for my career. I hope that with the support from Aramith & Simonis, I will have more opportunities to help young talents show their talents in big arenas as well as promote the billiards movement in Vietnam."
Player Bui Truong An affirmed that this is a golden opportunity for Vietnamese billiards: “Being noticed by a leading ball and felt manufacturing brand in the world is a great opportunity for Vietnamese billiards to develop. I hope that there will be major tournaments held in Vietnam. Vietnamese pool is on the way to development, the potential of Vietnamese players is still very large, I will also try to improve and develop myself more to be able to reach world titles in the future.”
During the contract years, Anh Tuan and Truong An will have the opportunity to travel across the country to promote the movement. Aramith & Simonis also commits to investing heavily in tournaments to further promote the Billiards movement in all provinces and cities through the brand representation of Anh Tuan and Truong An.
Next February, there will be a major tournament, gathering the world's top players to compete at Peri Pool Arena Da Nang, where Vietnamese players will have the opportunity to compete with the world's top players for a prize worth 40,000 USD.
