According to Dr. Thang, in 2025, the school will be recognized by the Center for Education Quality Assessment (University of Danang) as meeting the standards for training program assessment.

“After reviewing and adjusting, we decided to open a pickleball major to meet the growing social demand. This is a sport that is growing strongly, especially among young people,” said Dr. Duong Manh Thang.

According to the Vice Principal of the Danang University of Sports and Physical Education, pickleball is a sport that combines table tennis, badminton and tennis, suitable for all ages. The current teaching staff of the school have all been trained and granted international certificates in pickleball, ensuring the quality of teaching.

Dr. Duong Manh Thang added that pickleball is a major in sports training.

"After completing the program, students will be awarded a bachelor's degree in sports training, with the diploma appendix clearly stating the pickleball specialization, demonstrating the training orientation and specialized skills that students are equipped with," said Mr. Thang.

According to the Vice Principal of the Danang University of Physical Education and Sports, the first training course currently has nearly 20 students enrolled. The program focuses on techniques, tactics, training methods, competition organization and sports event management, aiming at developing the community and the professional pickleball movement in Vietnam.

Previously, in March 2025, the Da Nang Pickleball Federation was established. The city's education and sports sector also launched a movement to practice and compete in pickleball in schools and agencies, spreading the new and modern sports spirit to the community.
