Vice Chairman of Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee - Mr. Le Truong Son chaired a meeting with representatives of Truong Tuoi Binh Phuoc Football Club and related departments and branches to listen to reports on activities and development orientations of the football team in the coming period.

In the context of merging administrative units between Binh Phuoc and Dong Nai provinces (from July 1), the club proposed to change its name to Truong Tuoi Dong Nai Football Club, in order to match the name of the new province and demonstrate its determination to strongly transform.
Along with the proposal to change the name, the club hopes to invest in renovating and upgrading Dong Nai Stadium and using this place as its official home stadium in the near future.
