Super Ball is an annual tournament, gathering all the best freestyle soccer athletes around the world with many different competition contents: Routine (1-person juggling performance), Double Routine (Double juggling performance), Battle, Challenge...

This year’s tournament was held in Prague, Czech Republic with the participation of 429 athletes, including Vu Ngoc Nam (Nam Freestyle) – Born in 2002, currently a student at the Academy of Journalism and Communication, as the representative from Vietnam. Vu Ngoc Nam is also the youngest Vietnamese athlete to participate in the Super Ball World Freestyle Tournament.

Vu Ngoc Nam has an impressive performance.

After 7 years of practicing freestyle, Nam Freestyle's biggest dream is to meet the world freestyle champion Erlend, shake hands and be inspired by this legendary athlete. Vu Ngoc Nam's wish was fulfilled when he met his idol at the tournament.

As soon as he stepped onto the stage to prepare for his performance, Vu Ngoc Nam made everyone gasp with a very Vietnamese costume and a typical Vietnamese conical hat.

In his performance, Vu Ngoc Nam used the conical hat very delicately to combine with the ball, creating many difficult skills and was evaluated by the judges as extremely creative.

As a result, Nam Freestyle finished 7th out of 23 athletes. Although he could not make it into the top 5 to win a ticket to the finals, ranking 7th in the world was still far beyond Vu Ngoc Nam's expectations.
