Accordingly, the tournament has the participation of 8 teams including: Vietnam, U21 Vietnam, Australia, Sichuan Club (China), Philippines, U21 Thailand, Taiwan (China) and the defending champion Korabelka Club (Russia).

The style and encouragement prizes will receive 1,000 USD. In addition, the organizing committee will also award 9 individual titles, including the Miss prize with a prize of 500 USD.

According to the Organizing Committee, the competition venue was carefully calculated during the survey process. The three criteria for the Organizing Committee to choose were facilities, location - travel distance and scenic spots to promote the image.

Speaking at the ceremony, General Secretary of the Vietnam Volleyball Federation Le Tri Truong said: "This year is special for Vietnamese volleyball as both the national team and the Vietnam U21 team are participating in an international tournament for the first time. This tournament is very important, giving the two teams the opportunity to compete and prepare well professionally, while also reviewing their forces before orienting for the 33rd SEA Games.

The reigning Russian champions (Korabelka FC) are back in the tournament, which is great news for the tournament. From recent matches, I think the teams are pretty evenly matched this year. The matches will be very exciting.

Whether or not we can beat the Russian team depends on many factors. This year, the Vietnamese women's volleyball team is relatively stable in terms of strength and has a basis to learn from the loss in the previous tournament. Beating the Russian team is the specific goal and task of the team."

Meanwhile, head coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet said: "The preparation time between the 2025 AVC Nations Cup and this tournament is only 10 days. Therefore, we do not change much in terms of playing style and strength. We will definitely change the libero position. We are also looking for links to perfect our first pass blocking ability. The U21 Vietnam team recently had an athlete who had to go home for graduation exams, so we also have to consider it."

In addition, the Organizing Committee has also announced the ticket prices for watching the matches of this year's VTV Cup. Accordingly, the ticket prices for the matches in the group stage and quarter-finals are 150,000 VND for stands A, B and 100,000 VND for stand C.

Notably, starting from the semi-finals and finals, the ticket price for stand C is 200,000 VND and stands A and B is 300,000 VND. Head of VTV Sports Department, also Head of the Organizing Committee Phan Ngoc Tien emphasized that this is the highest price record of VTV Cup so far.
