The Thailand youth football team headed to seek monk’s blessing and shaved their heads as part of a Buddhist ceremony to proclaim them as novices. It is a gesture to honour those who participated in their rescue mission including former Thai Navy SEAL Lt. Cmdr. Saman Kunan who died during the task on July 6. A video shows 11 of the Thai boys attending the ceremony along with their coach. One of them could not be a part of it because he is a Christian. The soccer team were trapped inside the Tham Luang Cave for more than two weeks leaving the world in tension.

After their dramatic rescue by International diving experts, all the boys including their coach was taken to the hospital. It was last week when all of them were discharged declaring to be in good health to continue with their lifestyle. Before stepping into their regular schedule, the 11 boys visited a Buddhist temple and shoved in order to fulfil the promise made to the families to remember all the officers’ effort who strived days and nights to rescue all of them alive. Now, the boys whose age ranges from 11 to 16 years, will live in the temple for nine days, the same length of time they were stuck in the Thai cave before a team of divers found them.
