Mr. Mai Hoai Anh - Vice President of VTF, Head of the Organizing Committee of the Tournament - shared: "Beach tennis is a sport rich in entertainment, dynamic and has a lot of development potential in Vietnam, especially when our country owns a long coastline and many suitable destinations to develop sea sports activities. Through this tournament, the Vietnam Tennis Federation wishes to create an additional quality playing field, contributing to promoting the beach tennis movement, and at the same time gradually improving the professional quality and attractiveness of the sport".
Unlike traditional tennis, beach tennis requires athletes to be able to move flexibly on sand courts, react quickly, control the ball well and especially the ability to coordinate tactics in doubles events.
Without the familiar boundary lines of hard or clay fields, each ball on the sand field is a challenge in terms of fitness, accuracy and competitiveness. These factors promise to create exciting competitions, beautiful balls and exciting point chases.
