In Vinh Phuc, the local women's volleyball team was established in Oct 2007. After nearly 14 years, the team's coaching board includes four coaches, three athlete lines with 20 players.
Since 2015, Vinh Phuc women's volleyball team has been promoted to the top national level. However, the lack of budget lead to limitations in the compensation of the training board and athletes, advancement of equipment, recruiting and selecting quality human resources.
"Together with the effective operation of FLC Vinh Phuc resort complex of FLC Group in the province, the signing and introduction event of the Bamboo Airways women's volleyball team clearly demonstrates the motto of investing in sustainable development, focusing on activities contributing to society and to the destinations of FLC Group and Bamboo Airways," the Bamboo Airways CEO said.
