Affirming the pioneering role in sports socialization
The Cong Hien Sports Tournament is part of a prestigious award system organized by Sports and Culture Newspaper, aiming to honor individuals and collectives who not only achieve competitive achievements but also spread humanistic values and strongly inspire the community.
T&T Group's award in the "Aspiration to Contribute" category is not only recognition for specific achievements, but also affirms a consistent philosophy: doing sports as a social mission, associated with community and national interests.
It is no coincidence that the Selection Council of the Cong Hien Sports Awards selected T&T Group for this meaningful category. In the context of Vietnamese sports transforming towards professionalization, the role of businesses is becoming increasingly important. Right from the days of investing in sports, Mr. Do Quang Hien clearly identified: not doing football for economic benefits, but for the responsibility of contributing to society and the country.
The presence of businessman Do Vinh Quang, Vice Chairman of T&T Group, Chairman of Hanoi FC - the second son of businessman Do Quang Hien and players such as Do Duy Manh, Do Hoang Hen at the award ceremony is not only symbolic, but also shows the continuation between generations in the journey of serving Vietnamese sports.
The award is a great source of motivation for us to continue to adhere to a methodical and sustainable investment strategy for sports, thereby contributing even more to national teams," Vice Chairman of T&T Group Do Vinh Quang shared after receiving the award.
A lasting journey with Vietnamese football and sports
The award comes at a special time: the 20th anniversary of Hanoi FC's establishment - a typical symbol of T&T Group's sustainable development journey. From a young team, Hanoi FC has risen to become one of the most successful clubs in Vietnam with 6 V-League championships, 3 National Cups and 5 Super Cups.
However, the core value is not only in titles. That is a systematic youth training system, continuously providing the core force for national teams. Players who grew up from Hanoi FC have contributed to major milestones such as runner-up at the AFC U23 Championship, SEA Games championships, ASEAN Cup, creating a sustainable development foundation for Vietnamese football.
In women's football, the imprint of T&T Group is even more clearly shown. Taking over Thai Nguyen women's football team in a difficult context not only helps the team avoid the risk of dissolution, but also creates systemic changes: improved player income, improved training conditions, promoting a competitive environment and professionalizing Vietnamese women's football.
Not stopping at football, T&T Group also invests in other sports such as table tennis. The cooperation model with the People's Police force has helped the CAND - T&T table tennis team quickly rise to the leading national group. The historic gold medal in the mixed doubles event at the 2023 SEA Games is proof of the effectiveness of the long-term investment strategy.
In particular, the "contribution" spirit of T&T Group is also shown through humane and strongly spreading actions. At the second leg of the ASEAN Cup 2024 final at the Thai stadium, Mr. Do Quang Hien decided to hire a private jet to take the families of the players, relatives and a large number of fans to cheer for the Vietnamese national team.
The image of hundreds of Vietnamese fans covering the red stands of Jalamangala Stadium (Thailand) not only added spiritual strength to the Vietnamese players, but also became a beautiful symbol of companionship, sharing and belief in the national team.
Dedication aspiration" - core value
The biggest difference of T&T Group is not in the scale of investment, but in the development philosophy. While many sports models still depend on short-term resources, T&T chooses the long-term path: investing in people, systems and sustainable values.
Efforts to support naturalization procedures for star player Do Hoang Hen, develop youth training, improve competition conditions... show an open mindset, aiming to comprehensively elevate Vietnamese sports.
The "Khat Vong Con Hien" Award, therefore, not only honors a business, but also sends a broad message: sports need people who work with enthusiasm, vision and social responsibility.
Dedication aspiration" is therefore not a destination, but a long journey T&T Group is still continuing to write with persistent and practical contributions to Vietnamese sports and society.
