Pre-Asian Indoor Games III tournaments will take place in the second half of September in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and other venues before the games officially begin in late October.

Vietnam will host the third Asian Indoor Games from October 30 to November 8, 2009. About 5,000 athletes from 45 countries and territories will compete in 20 sporting events and a demonstration event. About 2,000 correspondents will cover the games while 4,000 volunteers will be selected to provide support for foreign officials and athletes.

The organising board is expected to sign a contract soon with Sport World Company which is to mobilise and provide commercial sponsorships for the games.

The General Department of Sport and Physical Training has decided to summon the Vovinam 1 & 2 teams to prepare for two international tournaments.

Vovinam 1, comprising a coach and 26 athletes (11 women) will begin training on July 15 to compete in the World Vovinam Championships scheduled for July 27-30.

Vovinam 2, comprising five coaches and 25 athletes (5 women), will train from July 17-November 10 to prepare for Asian Indoor Games III. The two tournaments will be held at the Competition House of Military Zone No7 in HCM City.
