Recently, at the Congress of the Vietnam Volleyball Federation for the VIII term (2026-2031), former volleyball beauty queen Pham Thi Kim Hue, Pham Thi Yen and Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hoa had the opportunity to reunite. The trio of former volleyball stars was awarded the commemorative medal "For Sports Cause".
Notably, the photo of Ngoc Hoa, Kim Hue and Pham Thi Yen taken together has caused a fever on social networks. Not only is it a moment of reunion, it is also an opportunity for fans to look back at the professional marks of athletes who used to play the role of pillars for many years.
Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hoa is considered one of the most typical middle blockers of Vietnamese volleyball. Born in 1987, she is a member of the generation of players who have played stably for more than a decade in the national team.
A notable milestone came in 2013, when Ngoc Hoa went to Thailand to play for Ayutthaya A.T.C. C, winning 3rd place in the national championship and being awarded the title "Excellent Middle Scorer". After that, she continued to play for Bangkok Glass, winning the Asian Championship in 2015 with this team and winning the right to participate in the world club tournament.
At the national team level, she maintained 15 consecutive years wearing the national jersey, participating in 8 SEA Games with achievements of many silver medals.
Pham Thi Yen is one of the prominent main attackers of the 2005-2015 period. She has played for the Information Command Club for many years (currently the Information Corps).
In 17 years of competition, Pham Thi Yen won 11 national championships and a number of individual titles such as beauty queen and excellent blocker at international tournaments.
In the national team, she and her teammates created a stable framework, contributing to SEA Games medals in many consecutive tournaments.
Pham Thi Kim Hue belongs to the senior generation, is one of the middle blockers who laid the foundation for the success of the next generation. She participated in the early stages of Vietnamese women's volleyball when she began to rise in the region, and won many silver medals at the SEA Games with the national team from the early 2000s.
With experience and leadership role, Kim Hue is an important factor in shaping the playing style and maintaining the stability of the team through many cycles.
