Striker Thanh Thuy is ready to debut in the Indonesian Volleyball Championship

HOÀNG HUÊ |

Striker Tran Thi Thanh Thuy will join the Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk team in the 2025 Indonesian National Volleyball Championship (Proliga).

Today (January 5), Proliga 2025 will officially kick off. Striker Tran Thi Thanh Thuy will play for Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk club, facing Jakarta Pertamina Enduro in the opening match.

Fans are expecting the captain of the Vietnamese women's volleyball team to be given a chance in this match. Based on the current personnel situation of the Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk team, Thanh Thuy's ability to play is very high, even being included in the main squad.

Thanh Thuy is currently a rare player in the Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk squad who is in the top 500 best athletes in the world. She is also one of the two oldest athletes on the team, along with libero Ayu Salsabila. The rest of the Indonesian team's squad this season is mainly young players, born from 2000 onwards.

In the main striker position, the female player from Binh Duong will compete with 5 other teammates: Mediol Stiovany Yoku, Putri Nur Hidayanti Agustin, Ibovna Talita, Shafina Ayu Larasati, Naftalya Katuuk. Notably, the above names are quite modest in height, while with a height of 1m90, Thanh Thuy is quite outstanding in the current main striker squad.

With the achievements she has made in the past as well as her success in the previous 5 trips abroad, Thanh Thuy is predicted to have no difficulty in getting an official competition spot.

Thanh Thuy's new team - Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk is a successful club in Indonesia. They have just won the Indonesian Premier Volleyball League (Livoli Divisi Utama). Meanwhile, in the national championship, this club has never won a championship.

It is worth mentioning that, similar to Duc Giang Chemicals in Vietnam, Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk has the most runner-up finishes in the tournament with 5 times. Therefore, with the addition of 2 foreign players, Thanh Thuy and opposite player Kitania Medina (Cuba), coach Ayub Hidayat's team aims to win the highest position in this year's tournament.

Thanh Thuy and her teammates will face Jakarta Pertamina Enduro in their opening match. They are also a prominent name in the Indonesian national championship. Last season, they finished in 4th place.

Jakarta Pertamina Enduro’s squad includes many Thai national team players, including Nandita Ayu. She participated in VTV Cup 2016 and won the title of Miss of the tournament. The team has also recently added quality foreign player Elena Samoilenko - a former player of Duc Giang Chemicals.

With strength and force assessed to have no big difference, the two teams promise to bring an attractive match with high expertise.

Thanh Thuy is among the experienced names. If she is allowed to play, it will mark her first match in her 6th overseas trip of her career. Therefore, the main striker of Vietnam is expected to have the opportunity to shine, bringing victory to the home team.

The match between Gresik Petrokimia Pupuk and Jakarta Pertamina Enduro will take place at 16:30 on January 5.
