This impressive milestone has laid the foundation for the strong development of Kickboxing in Vietnam. Since 2010, Kickboxing has organized 3 official national competitions: National Kickboxing Championship, National Boxing Club Championship, National Youth Kickboxing Championship.
Since then, the Kickboxing training and competition movement has grown strongly in both quantity and quality. The number of Kickboxing clubs and the number of people participating in Kickboxing training have increased rapidly in nearly 40 provinces, cities and industries.
