The Journey
His coaching career started back in 1986 with the Kasetsart University team.
“I learned all about coaching during my time at Kasetsart. At that time, I was a national spiker and also studying there. No coach was available in my university so I decided to help coach my varsity team. After I graduated, I continued to coach the team. My life revolved around volleyball. Aside from Kasetsart University, I also coached the Royal Thai Air Force, Benjamarachanusorn School, Thai Namtip and Bangkok Bank teams.
Five years later and having played in the South East Asian (SEA) Games on five occasions, I decided to call it a day. I changed his mind when I was asked to play again to compete in the 1995 SEA Games hosted by Thailand.
Finally in 1997, I said goodbye to the national team. I was ready to start my permanent career with the Aeronautical Radio of Thailand.
