The Promotion Fund for Vietnamese Football Talent (PVF) will select 120 boys aged 9 to 12 to take part in a training course from later this year in 37 cities and provinces across the country.

Participants in the selection process are required to take part in five competition categories, including 30m running, standing long jump, ball passing, competing against others and height and weight measurements.

After being chosen, the candidates will gather and practise in HCM City under the instruction of former players for two months. At the beginning of August, 50 of the best students selected from the initial group of 120 will receive long-term professional training at the Thang Long Sports Centre in HCM City.

Parents can register their children to take part by sending application forms to gymnastics and sports centres of cities and provinces where the selection rounds take place or entering directly during PVF's enrolment days.-VNS
