Middle blocker Nguyễn Phương Quỳnh drew attention when coach Tuấn Kiệt called her up to the Vietnam women's volleyball team in preparation for SEA Games 33.
Middle blocker Nguyễn Phương Quỳnh is currently the center of attention in Vietnamese volleyball after being summoned to the preliminary national women's team roster for SEA Games 33. Previously, the 20-year-old faced much doubt when first called to the national team in early 2025, but her outstanding performance at the 2025 VTV Ferroli Cup helped her prove her skills and remarkable improvement. In that tournament, Phương Quỳnh scored 7 points against the strong Russian team Korabelka.
