This year, the tournament was joined by 16 teams from the clubs and localities in the province. It was a round robin tournament where the teams were split into four pools. According to a member of the organization committee, the futsal tournament has been the most attractive tournament among the other ones within the province’s competition system. The tournament has often drawn the attention and interest from the businesses and localities in the province.
The participants at this year’s tournament were selected quite carefully based on the teams’ achievements at the previous futsal tournaments. The teams of the businesses which had showed strong interest in futsal were also chosen. The teams like Nha Trang, Thanh Thanh Travel and Khanh Viet Corporation have been the senior futsal teams in Khanh Hoa. The teams having supported by the businesses and localities have also been quite highly evaluated by the professionals. The joining of these teams brought the tournament many exciting matches.
The highlight of the tournament was the final clash between Nha Trang and C-CASA. That was not only the competition between the two most excellent teams of the 2017 tournament but also the competition between two generations of futsal movement in Khanh Hoa. Nha Trang contained many experienced players in the provincial playgrounds and even national playgrounds. Meanwhile, C-CASA represented a young generation with physical advantage. Thanks to their superior physical strength and high determination in the first joining, the young athletes of C-CASA won over the opponent 3-1 and became the champion of the 2017 tournament.
Reportedly, C-CASA was formed three years ago, sponsored by tourism business. From the establishment, the team has actively taken part in many movement tournaments in the province and been known for their fair play.
Apart from the professional quality, the good organization also contributed to the success of the 2017 tournament. “In order to ensure the fair play of the matches, the organization committee invited professional referees to watch the games. In addition, all the participant teams were required to conform strictly to the tournament’s regulations. The 2018 tournament will also include 16 teams. The seeds will be divided to groups to help increase the excitement of the tournament,” said Nguyen Minh Dat, Director of Khanh Hoa Provincial Sports Service Center, deputy chief of organization committee.
