Volleyball «National Championship 2026» - Men's Stage 2 and Finals

   After stage 1 in Đông Anh back in April, Vietnam's eight strongest men's volleyball clubs converge on Ho Chi Minh City for almost two decisive weeks: who takes the title, who gets relegated.

   The 2026 National Volleyball Championship (Cà Mau Fertilizer Cup), men's competition, runs 28 October - 8 November 2026 at the Ho Chi Minh City Police Sports Centre Gymnasium. This is the 23rd season of the tournament.

   Eight teams take part (by 2025 ranking): Biên Phòng MB, Thể Công Tân Cảng, Công an TP. Hồ Chí Minh, LP Bank Ninh Bình, Hà Nội, Đà Nẵng, Sanest Khánh Hòa, and newcomer TP. Hồ Chí Minh - each club may register up to two foreign players, with only one on court at a time.

   Format in Ho Chi Minh City:

• — A double round-robin among the 8 teams, ranking them 1st to 8th;
• — The top 4 advance to knockout finals: 1st vs 4th, 2nd vs 3rd, winners meet for the title, losers play for 3rd place;
• — The bottom 4 play a 5th-8th classification round, with the 8th-placed team relegated to the 2027 A-division;
• — Total prize money across the whole championship (men's and women's) exceeds 2 billion VND.

   Entry is free: the organisers have opened both stage-two venues — Vĩnh Long and Ho Chi Minh City — to the public at no charge, with no tickets sold. Anyone who cannot attend can still watch free on VTVcab ON/VTV Prime and the Trực Tiếp Bóng Chuyền YouTube channel.

   Host club Công an TP. Hồ Chí Minh finished runner-up in stage 1 - Saigon fans have every reason to turn out and cheer them on at home during the season's decisive stretch.
