On August 19, the Vietnam Volleyball Federation (VFV) announced that setter Bich Tuyen would not participate in the World Championship with the Vietnamese women's team.
“In this World Championship, the team will not have the service of athlete Nguyen Thi Bich Tuyen. For personal reasons, athlete Bich Tuyen has expressed her wish not to participate in this competition.
The Vietnam Volleyball Federation and the coaching board respect the athlete's decision. We affirm that Bich Tuyen will always be an important member and always welcome her return to contribute to the national team in the future when she is ready.
In order to meet the expectations of millions of fans, the Vietnam Volleyball Federation will continuously update information about the team at the tournament on the Federation's website and provide it to news agencies, post it on the Vietnam Volleyball fanpage/youtube page to help audiences nationwide follow and cheer for Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet and his team...", announced from VFV.
It can be said that the absence of Bich Tuyen is a great loss for the Vietnamese women's team.
The 2000-born setter is in great form and has always been the top scorer for his team in recent international tournaments.
In the second leg of SEA V.League 2025, Bich Tuyen played explosively, scoring 45 points in the final match against Thailand, thereby contributing greatly to helping the home team win the championship.
Bich Tuyen also received the MVP title - "Best All-round Player" and "Best Opposite Passer" in this match.

According to the match schedule, the Vietnamese women's team will open against Poland (August 23), then meet Germany (August 25), and Kenya (August 27).
This is the first time and a valuable opportunity for the Vietnamese women's team to compete on the world stage, approach and compete with major volleyball teams, thereby accumulating experience, developing expertise to prepare for the biggest goal of the year, the 33rd SEA Games.
After returning from Thailand, the Vietnamese women's team will take a short break before returning to training in October.
