Middle blocker Tran Thi Bich Thuy left Bangkok (Thailand) early in the morning of December 16 in time for her return flight to Japan to continue competing professionally. Before that, she joined the Vietnam Women's Volleyball Team in Vinh Long and then went to Thailand to participate in the 33rd SEA Games.
Meanwhile, the main striker Tran Thi Thanh Thuy returned to Vietnam after the 33rd SEA Games for a short break before returning to Japan. The schedule of this hitter was approved by the home team Gunma Green Wings (Japan).
The two players Bich Thuy and Thanh Thuy were the top scorers in the final match between the Vietnam Women's Volleyball Team and Thailand on the evening of December 16. Thanh Thuy scored 24 points while Bich Thuy had 15 points. These are also 2 faces that play a key role in the professional squad that coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet has built in recent times.
Two years ago, Bich Thuy and Thanh Thuy also attended the 32nd SEA Games final in Cambodia, where we suffered a 1-3 defeat to Thailand at that time.
Going to Japan to continue competing also means that Tran Thi Thanh Thuy and Tran Thi Bich Thuy will not return home to participate in the first phase of the 2025 National Championship. In the country, Thanh Thuy is a player of VTV Binh Dien Long An team and Bich Thuy is a player of Duc Giang Chemicals team.
