This was the third consecutive championship at the National 4x4 Beach Volleyball Championships of Sanvinest Khanh Hoa female athletes. “In women's event, currently, Sanvinest Khanh Hoa have no opponents. It is because most of the other teams are in the process of rejuvenation, while our female athletes such as Thanh Tam, Tuong Vy, Le Nguyen are at their peak. They have gained a lot of experience at national and international tournaments and have been the core force of the national team. As for the men's event, we are a bit wary of Ho Chi Minh City team", said Nguyen Cao Dong, coach of Sanvinest Khanh Hoa.
 
About 5-7 years ago, Khanh Hoa’s men beach volleyball with the peak form of the pair of athletes Trong Quoc-Thanh Vinh weren’t wary of Ho Chi Minh City athletes. After Thanh Vinh suffered injury to his knee, both teams have equal chances of win. At this year's National 4x4 Beach Volleyball Championships, although Sanvinest Khanh Hoa male athletes won against Ho Chi Minh City, their opponents also showed great progress. Having many quality athletes, especially excellent members of the national team namely Van Nha, Long Nhat, Quy Suat, and Quang Vu, and being instructed by head coach Trong Quoc and assistant coach of the national team Thanh Vinh, Sanvinest Khanh Hoa male team is expected to perform well and secure good result at the upcoming National Sports Festival.
