The 2025 National U23 Volleyball Championship will officially kick off on July 12 at the Thai Nguyen Provincial Gymnasium. This year's tournament has the participation of 17 teams from many localities.
This year, the men's event has participating teams including The Cong, Ninh Binh, Ha Tinh, Hai Duong Police, Quang Nam and Ho Chi Minh City. Meanwhile, the women's event includes Vietinbank, Quang Ninh, Hai Duong, Thai Nguyen, VTV Binh Dien Long An, Thai Binh, Information Corps, Duc Giang Chemicals, Vinh Phuc, Dak Lak and Bac Ninh.
One of the notable points in this year's tournament is the appearance of the U21 Vietnam force. The young players of the U21 Vietnam team who are in good form and have just performed impressively at the VTV Cup 2025 will return to the club and become expected factors at the 2025 National U21 Championship.
Last year, Dang Thi Hong (Thai Nguyen) was the best attacking athlete. This year, she continued to be registered by her home team to compete. In the recent VTV Cup 2025, Dang Thi Hong not only played the role of leader of U21 Vietnam but also the Vietnamese player who scored the most points in the tournament with 111 points, including 12 points from blocks and 3 serve points.
With impressive performance, Dang Thi Hong is one of the most anticipated names in this year's tournament.

In addition to Dang Thi Hong, young players of VTV Binh Dien Long An such as Nguyen Thi Tra My, Le Nhu Anh, Trinh Huynh Bao Ngoc, Nguyen Lan Vy will also participate in the tournament.
After participating in international tournaments, these players will join the U23 VTV Binh Dien Long An team to compete in Thai Nguyen. The defending champion VTV Binh Dien Long An will continue to be a formidable force in the race in this year's tournament.
In addition, the Information Corps women's team is no less strong with the participation of talented young players such as Pham Quynh Huong, Ngo Thi Bich Hue and Lai Thi Khanh Huyen.
The return of these players not only improves the professional quality of the tournament, but also demonstrates the importance of developing young talents in Vietnamese women's volleyball.
In addition to helping the youth team of the home club achieve high results, the 2025 National U23 Championship is also an opportunity for the players to continue to rub shoulders and express themselves.
This is the time when the national team's coaching staff will carefully consider choosing the squad to participate in the U21 World Cup. Therefore, Dang Thi Hong and the players will need to show themselves well to prove that they are worthy of a position in the U21 Vietnam squad in the upcoming tournament.
The 2025 National U23 Volleyball Championship will take place from July 12 to July 24, promising to be an ideal playground for young players to demonstrate their talents, accumulate experience and aim for higher goals in their careers.
