On 16 August 2026, a new legend of the "dream-carrying truck" in volleyball arose after "Kanchanapisek Wittayalai Krabi School" transported its athletes by a six-wheeled fan truck to compete, making the round trip from Bangkok to Krabi and back, ultimately winning the championship.
The "Kob Sanam" page of the Krabi Provincial Administration Organization Cup told Thairath Sport, "Kanchanapisek Wittayalai Krabi School uses this truck to compete in every province and tournament. The entire budget comes from the school. The prize money won is partially given to the athletes, and the remainder is pooled as a central fund."
"This tournament is very grueling. The distance from Krabi Province to Bangkok is 788 kilometers. After competing, the team always returns to continue their studies."
"Throughout the competition, both male and female athletes traveled together. The men's team was eliminated before the finals, but the women's team won the championship."
"Besides transporting athletes, the truck also carries coaching staff and a kitchen team, including a gas stove and rice cooker, to prepare their own meals. Altogether, over 30 people travel. When competing in Bangkok, they stay at Kanchanapisek Wittayalai Nakhon Pathom School."
The head coach of Kanchanapisek Wittayalai Krabi School is "Coach Xin" Theerayut Laochai, who was absent due to duties as assistant coach of Thailand's U17 women's national volleyball team competing in the 2026 World Championship in Chile. During the final, Kanchanapisek Wittayalai Krabi defeated the defending champion, Nakhon Nonthaburi Sports School 6, and Coach Xin communicated from Chile to advise on game strategies throughout.
From the "dream-carrying truck" of 7-Color football to the "dream-carrying truck" of volleyball, the 7HD sports champions, stories from these provincial schools prove that Thai children's dreams are within reach, provided they have determination, opportunity, and companions ready to travel the journey together.
