"The preparation time between the AVC Nations Cup 2025 and VTV Cup 2025 is only 10 days, so we do not change much in terms of playing style or personnel. There will definitely be adjustments in the libero position. We are looking for links to perfect the ability to block the first step. The U21 team also has athletes who have to return to take graduation exams, so the team arrangement needs to be considered," Coach Nguyen Tuan Kiet shared about the preparations of the two Vietnamese women's volleyball teams at the VTV Cup 2025 Announcement Ceremony.
