Thanh Thuy is still number 1
It is rare to see Thanh Thuy react more than necessary on the field. Thanh Thuy is always calm and maintains the most appropriate attitude.
Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet once said that this main attacker is an exemplary captain, worthy of being a spiritual support for his teammates on the field. Thanh Thuy is the one who has worn the shirts of foreign clubs the most among Vietnamese volleyball players who have gone abroad (having played in Taiwan (China), Japan, Turkey).
Thanh Thuy once shared that the process of training and competing in Japan helped her learn and accumulate a lot because Japanese sports have the top professionalism in Asia, all volleyball players who come here to compete learn that professionalism.
From the warm-up movements to the direct competition, Tran Thi Thanh Thuy has never had a superficial attitude. She said that Japanese volleyball helps players understand a very important value, which is that the player himself is the one who decides his own success, cannot depend on anyone, and if he is a good and professional person in his sport, he will receive a good income accordingly.
Now, Tran Thi Thanh Thuy has a new step in her career by competing in Europe. The professional volleyball environment in Türkiye will certainly help this striker a lot.
Initial basic training
18 teams (9 men's teams, 9 women's teams) participating in the 2024 National Volleyball Championship are all recruiting and training young players. In addition, teams in the A-class volleyball tournament also carry out the above task.
“Young players are built in character and professional style right from the beginning. Therefore, training them requires the most dedicated teachers. In particular, how disciplined or professional a player is depends on the first step of training,” Vice President of the Vietnam Volleyball Federation - Mr. Tran Duc Phan once shared.
When young boys and girls are selected to join volleyball teams, they are blank sheets of paper. They will gradually form their personalities and professional characteristics through the training process. Many players after the basic training period have developed their skills well, becoming famous to become national players.
Many players who do not have the best development have had to say goodbye to their career as high-performance volleyball players. Volleyball is a team sport. For a team to be successful and have professionalism in its activities, each element (player) is the nucleus that together makes the best for the whole team.
This is the reason why all volleyball teams in Vietnam focus very carefully on professional training for young players and also teach them many lessons to become professional sports people.
A representative of the Information Corps women's volleyball team once shared: "We are fortunate to be a sports team in a military environment. When selected and trained, players all have the same chance of success. Each training line not only focuses on professional work but also teaches athletes to be successful in their careers and lives. This is one of the things that many families feel very secure when their children are selected for training."
VTV Binh Dien Long An Women's Team is considered one of the places that most highly values professionalism in its activities. Each player is always fully equipped with equipment every year according to regulations. Salary and bonus regime is clear.
The team's leaders believe that when a professional environment is created in daily life, professional training and investment, players will see the team as a good environment and will be able to play with all their heart. Otherwise, they will certainly encounter many external factors that will make it easy for them to lose focus on their skills.
Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hoa in the past and Tran Thi Thanh Thuy at present are two typical players that this team trained from the basics and then built them up with a professional mindset when on the field, achieving success like now. They are definitely players who inspire many generations of juniors to follow.
