Everyone beware, VTV Bình Điền Long An welcomes back their star outside hitter!

This is the shining star who helped VTV Bình Điền Long An claim the national championship in the 2024 season.

Outside hitter Phan Khánh Vy is very likely to return to play for VTV Bình Điền Long An in the 2026 Women's National Volleyball Championship, starting in early April in Đông Anh, Hanoi.

Accordingly, Khánh Vy is said to have resumed professional training with her teammates. However, VTV Bình Điền Long An will still give the 2002-born player enough time to adjust to the physical demands before finalizing tactical plans for competition.

Phan Khánh Vy, 23 years old, is a young outside hitter with high professional quality at VTV Bình Điền Long An. Developed from the club’s own youth academy in the Mekong Delta region, Khánh Vy has won 3 national championships in 2017, 2018, and 2024; 4 gold medals at the Hùng Vương Cup; and 2 titles at the Hoa Lư - Bình Điền Cup (according to Volleybox).

Khánh Vy’s most significant impact was during the 2024 season. With the absence of outside hitter Trần Thị Thanh Thúy, who was playing abroad in Turkey at that time, the 1.76m tall talent combined with the experience of legend Nguyễn Thị Ngọc Hoa—now head coach—helped VTV Bình Điền Long An win the national championship despite not being the top-ranked club.

In February 2025, Phan Khánh Vy married Nguyễn Văn Thái - a middle blocker who played for Lavie Long An (now Lavie Tây Ninh) in the 2024 season, and together they built their home. This explains why this talented player missed all the tournaments VTV Bình Điền Long An competed in last year: 2 stages of the National Championship, Hùng Vương Cup, Hoa Lư - Bình Điền Cup, and AVC Champions League.

The return of a skilled outside hitter like Phan Khánh Vy is essential for VTV Bình Điền Long An in the 2026 season. Last year, at times the team led by coach Ngọc Hoa faced an offensive crisis: Thanh Thúy played overseas, Nguyễn Thị Trà My was still recovering from injury, but luckily the decision to bring back Đặng Thị Kim Thanh as setter had an immediate positive effect.

Earlier this year, the team also parted ways with libero Nguyễn Khánh Đang and setter Lê Thị Ngọc Trâm. Nevertheless, with Khánh Vy’s comeback and a group of young players ready to prove themselves, VTV Bình Điền Long An will not recruit any domestic players.
