Vietnam women's volleyball team list for SEA Games 33: Youthful lineup but still awaiting Thanh Thúy, Bích Thủy, Bích Tuyền

Coach Tuấn Kiệt openly reveals his plan to rejuvenate the Vietnam volleyball team, but to win the SEA Games gold medal, he still has to wait for key players like Thanh Thúy, Bích Thủy, and Bích Tuyền who will join the team late.

Preliminary roster of Vietnam women's volleyball team for SEA Games 33

The Vietnam Volleyball Federation (VFV) recently released the preliminary list of 20 athletes for the Vietnam women's volleyball team preparing for SEA Games 33 (December 9-20, 2025, Thailand), bringing many positive signals. Combining a youthful refresh, the impressive comeback of Đặng Thị Kim Thanh, and hopes pinned on core players such as Trần Thị Thanh Thúy, Trần Thị Bích Thủy, and Nguyễn Thị Bích Tuyền, the team shows ambition to win the gold medal after two consecutive SEA Games silver finishes.

One of the highlights of this list is a clear youth movement. Players like Vi Thị Yến Nhi (setter), Lê Thùy Linh (middle blocker), and Hà Kiều Vy (libero) represent the new generation, bringing energy and dynamism. Vi Thị Như Quỳnh, an outside hitter standing 1.80m tall, demonstrated her potential at the 2025 National Championship with powerful attacks. The presence of young talents not only deepens the team roster but also serves as a stepping stone for long-term goals like SEA Games 34 and Asian competitions. Coach Nguyễn Tuấn Kiệt appears to be building a squad that can handle immediate pressure while ensuring continuity, avoiding dependence on veterans such as Lưu Thị Huệ or Nguyễn Thị Trinh.
