According to the Organizing Committee, all 4 teams are "reluctant female athletes" gathered and trained quickly to join the commune's soccer team to compete in a friendly match.

Most of the women on the team are married and have limited skills, but with their love for football and desire to promote their nation's image, they still give their all to the audience.

Fierce ball fights took place right on the field between players of the two teams. Many times the girls were so busy chasing the ball that they "forgot" to fight with their own teammates.

In order not to miss the opportunity when having the ball, many women "roll up their skirts" and run after the ball.

Along the sidelines, the hastily elected "Head Coaches" are usually village chiefs or social and cultural officials or the husbands of female players on the field. They constantly direct and change tactics to help their teams quickly score goals against the opponent's net.

Sometimes the referee has to temporarily stop the match because "spectators" wander onto the field.

Unlike professional football tournaments, the dirt field in the Thanh Y Dao Ethnic Reserve has no grass. Every time they fight, dust from the airport grounds rises up, but the women still "fight left and right" without fear of falls that can cause scratches on their limbs.

After the tense moments of conflict on the field, the sisters laughed and joked with each other because winning or losing was not important. They competed because of their passion for the round ball and the desire to attract spectators who were tourists from far away to visit, explore and experience the cultural space of the people here.
