The tournament was held to celebrate the 80th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh's visit to Cam Ranh Bay (October 18, 1946 - October 18, 2026). It also provided an opportunity for young athletes to exchange, learn, and foster the spirit of solidarity and fair play in sports. Thereby, it contributes to promoting physical training and sports movements among youth and children, creating a healthy and beneficial playground that helps them develop comprehensively in both physical and mental well-being.
