According to Lao Dong's investigation, right before the opening of round 1 of the 2026 National Club Volleyball Championship, Duc Giang Chemicals team replaced foreign player Nannaphat Moonjakham (Thailand) with main attacker Kuttika Kaewpin.
Striker Kuttika Kaewpin once came to Vietnam to play for Hoa Chat Duc Giang team in the 2nd round of the 2025 National Championship and achieved harmony in the squad.
The change of foreign players to choose main attacker Kuttika Kaewpin in the registered list was calculated by the coaching staff of Hoa Chat Duc Giang team to be suitable.
Thus, foreign soldier Nannaphat Moonjakham will almost certainly not come to Vietnam to play for the Duc Giang Chemical team.
Because round 1 of the 2026 National Club Championship is about to kick off, Kuttika Kaewpin has come to Vietnam to train with her teammates. This year, Duc Giang Chemicals team also registered a second foreign player, a familiar face competing for the setter position, Tichaya Boonlert.
Duc Giang Chemical Team and Binh Chung Thong Tin are 2 teams in the women's content registering 2 foreign players to participate in round 1 of this year's tournament. The competition program will take place at Dong Anh Gymnasium (Hanoi) from April 6 to April 19.
Duc Giang Chemicals team also has middle blocker Ly Thi Luyen who will participate in round 1 of this year's tournament, after she finished competing in Thailand and returned home on April 5.
However, the possibility of main attacker Tran Tu Linh playing or not is still open. Duc Giang Chemical Team was chosen as the host of round 1 of the 2026 National Club Championship.
