According to the plan, head coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang and his team will have more than 4 weeks to prepare for the tournament. After the domestic training period, the team will go to China for training, including two friendly matches with the Chinese women's futsal team in early December.

Sharing about the team's goal, coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang said: "The whole team is determined to reach the final and aim for the best results at SEA Games 33. We will try our best to prepare well to achieve this goal."

At the 33rd SEA Games, the Vietnamese women's futsal team was in the same group as Indonesia and Myanmar. Evaluating the opponents, coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang commented: "Indonesia is progressing very quickly, they played impressively at the recent Asian finals with many quality players and abundant physical strength. Myanmar is an opponent we beat in the qualifying round, but they have many potential young players and will certainly bring many difficulties. This is a balanced group, requiring the team to have careful preparation both in terms of tactics and mentality."

In this training session, the team's core force still includes the players who participated in the 2025 Asian Women's Futsal Finals, while adding some young faces such as Tran Tuyet Mai, Lam Thi Xuan, Nguyen Thi Kim Phuong (Thai Son Nam Futsal Club, Ho Chi Minh City), Nguyen Huynh Nhu (Thong Nhat Sports Center) and Nguyen Phuong Anh (Ninh Binh Department of Culture and Sports).

Coach Nguyen Dinh Hoang emphasized: “The current squad is a combination of experience and youth. We will adjust our playing style, speed and tactics, aiming for positive changes not only for the upcoming SEA Games but also for the long-term goals of Vietnamese women’s futsal.”

Two athletes of Ho Chi Minh City Women's Football Club, Tran Thi Thuy Trang and K'Thua, will join the team after the end of the Asian Women's Club Football Championship.
