The 10th Vietnam Professional Basketball Season - Reaching Limitless

VBA CEO Tran Chu Sa speaks at the event.

" 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of VBA's establishment and development. With the foundation built on a decade-long journey, VBA continues to pioneer in conquering new heights. With the main message "VBA X - Rise Beyond: Reaching beyond limits", the 10th season of VBA will lay the foundation for a strategic vision in the next era, aiming for comprehensive, sustainable development and reaching international standards", said Mr. Tran Chu Sa - CEO of VBA.

Specifically, VBA 10 season will have the following important improvements:

Bring back home-away format

From the very first steps, VBA has chosen the philosophy of “Taking fans as the center, constantly striving for excellence, creating a positive, trustworthy and sustainable happy basketball community”. Following this guideline, VBA 10 will bring back the home-away format, to continue spreading the flame of passion, promoting the building of a loyal fan community nationwide.

With the participation of seven teams: Hanoi Buffaloes, Danang Dragons, Nha Trang Dolphins, Ho Chi Minh City Wings, Saigon Heat, Cantho Catfish and an international guest team, VBA 10 will bring the fiery basketball atmosphere to all cities: Hanoi , Danang, Nha Trang, and Ho Chi Minh City.

Improve your expertise

Since the first year, the presence of foreign players as well as players of Vietnamese origin has contributed significantly to improving the level of domestic players. Over the years, the remarkable progress of this “homegrown” force has motivated VBA to find inspiration to raise their level of expertise to a new level.

After a period of incubation, VBA 10 will have a new appearance from Asian foreign players (Asian Import). This is an important step, affirming the rising position of Vietnamese basketball and the ambition to bring Vietnamese sports to continuously reach out to the region and the world.

“Creating a generation of greatness – Accompanying sustainable development”

VBA has a strategic partnership with a banking unit and shares a commitment to jointly build a foundation, create opportunities, and provide motivation for each individual to develop comprehensively and for the community to be stable in the long term. This is the basis for both sides to promote their potential and promote a bright and sustainable future.

Representatives of Vietnamese professional basketball clubs attended the event.

To realize the above goals, three main focuses are identified, including:

- Physical fitness: Building a healthy, active community through basketball and healthy sports and recreational activities, as well as improving the quality of life by caring for and developing the physical health of the community.

- Strong spirit: Focus on nurturing confidence, optimism and the will to overcome challenges for the young generation, while inspiring, awakening potential and moving towards a solid future.

- Secure the future: Building a generation of young Vietnamese people who are proactive, responsible and ready to break through, thereby creating favorable conditions for the community to develop sustainably and reach far.

With a shared vision and strong commitment, the cooperation is expected to bring positive impacts and success to the community, especially the young generation of Vietnam.

VBA 10 pioneers in expanding the Sport-Shoppertainment experience in Vietnam

VBA 10 season marks an important turning point when it first applied the Sport-Shoppertainment model - a pioneering approach combining sports, entertainment and shopping within the framework of a professional sports tournament in Vietnam.

Through this model, VBA not only brings high-quality matches, but also builds a comprehensive experience ecosystem for fans, where they can watch sports, enjoy exciting entertainment activities and convenient shopping, right at the event space.

With this orientation, VBA not only enhances the value of the tournament, but also creates a space where sports become a lifestyle, and fans truly feel like they are part of a colorful and emotional community.

StarXidol Inspirational Ambassador Launch

In addition to innovations in organizational models and fan experiences, the 2025 VBA 10 season also marks a special milestone with the official introduction of the StarXidol Inspirational Ambassador system - a new initiative to spread positive values ​​from sports to the community.

Basketball inspirational ambassador Truong Twins interacts with fans.

StarXidol is a program that honors and connects influential individuals in different fields, but shares the same spirit of breaking limits and inspiring positive living.

Ambassadors introduced in the VBA10 season include:

- Truong Thao My and Truong Thao Vy (Truong Twins) – basketball inspirational ambassadors.

- Luong Xuan Truong and Nguyen Thi Anh Vien – sports inspiration ambassadors.

- Cuong Seven - entertainment inspiration ambassador.

Through StarXidol, VBA hopes to build a launching pad for “inspirational torches” – individuals who are not only successful in their fields, but also willing to share the spirit of positive living, daring to be different and constantly striving.

Throughout the upcoming season, each ambassador will accompany VBA in community activities, exchanges, communications and special events, contributing to strongly spreading the spirit of "Rise Beyond - Reaching beyond limits" to the young generation and sports fan community across the country.
