[2] Friendlies between teams/individuals

4 areas we have shortlisted which can help train players in crowd events and also maybe garner more interests (esp with low interest at local news media on XQ) at the grass-root levels

- local Chinatown. There is a location behind a chinese temple at chinatown where chess can be played
- lunch & game at coffee shop etc. This is a common sights in Viet Nam over the weekends.
- Capture-the-Flag games where challenger must win a few layers of defenders and face the strong boss player. This will also help to identify strong player who don't join national/club events
- Overseas/Visiting club/group friendlies
